Wednesday and now . . . Spring Break

We finished our movie today and discussed how to be prepared. We discussed the different catastrophes that could happen here and talked about the fact that if we are prepared we do not need to be afraid. Students told of different things they could do so their families would be prepared. It was a good discussion. We also cut out the continents of a world map. We will use those next week when we talk about continental drift and Pangaea.

Spring Break is upon us. We will be out Thursday and Monday. Remember to do your sundial when it is sunny. Anchor a paper to the ground or other stationery object. Anchor a stick or pencil oo the paper. (clay works good - or just stick it in the ground) Every hour draw the line your stick makes. Make sure to draw to the end of the shadow. Label the hours. It must have five markings on it. Remember, this might be the last good weather we have so get it done now.

Have a great break!
