Poetry Project / Enjoy Spring Break







This week the kids did a poetry project called Aurora Borealis Concrete Poems in celebration of national poetry month.  The kids used watercolors to make their best impression of a silhouette with the northern lights.  It’s a nice segway into our next science unit “Under The Night Sky” shortly after break. 
We had a great time at the “Thrilla in McMilla” dog sled race this past weekend.  Seeing the kids drive their own team and live out what we’ve studied is always such a treat.  Keep in mind you are welcome to join us for the race in future years if you couldn’t make it up this year.  Just shoot me an email and I can include you in the details.
