Our trip to Sturbridge Village went very well on Friday. Despite the forecast for a wet and dreary day, we escaped all rain up until the walk back to the bus. We were very lucky.
Students start their first science switch of the year this week. Up until this point, they had science with me, and learned about Simple Machines. This week, they will start going to Mrs. Spencer’s room on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays working on a Flight & Rocketry unit. This will last a total of 17 classes then they will switch again and then again, and finally finish off the year in science with me.
On Friday we are going to the More Than Money Conference at Aetna in Hartford. This is a Junior Achievement sponsored program only open to fifth graders in Connecticut. Students will learn about money and business. If they ordered a sandwich they will be fed as well. The food is free. Students chose whether or not to order food or bring their own lunch/drink.
