Artifacts

Next week we will start a new Social Studies unit. One of the things we will be discussing is how we can learn about someone/something from artifacts. Can your child please bring in something that means something to them? Please do not put their name on it, as part of the lesson is to see what we can tell about this person by their artifact. Can you please bring in the artifact on Tuesday, 10/4.

Field Trips!

We will be having two field trips this year! One will be an in-school field trip where Science is Fun comes to our class and will do sound experiments in a class called "Sound Surprise." You can find out more about it here: Science is Fun   Our out-of-school field trip will be at Oakview Historic House. We will spend the morning there and have a picnic lunch. You can read about the programs we will be doing here: Oakview Historic House Volunteers are strongly encouraged for the out-of-school field trip!  I will provide the dates and more information of our field trips soon, once we are all finalized.
