In Science today, we observed that some liquids are heavier than others.

Thank you to Mrs. Manz, Mr. and Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Bade & Mrs. JP for helping tie skates today!  We skate again tomorrow at the same time.

A yellow note was sent home today in your child's Take Home Folder.  Please check your scheduled Student Led Conference time slot.  Either send me an email or a note in your child's agenda to either confirm or ask for a time change.

Tomorrow is Pink Shirt Day.....

Library and Skating on Monday....

Our scheduled skating time is from 9:25 - 10: 10...if you are available to tie skates, it would be greatly appreciated.  Our students will be going to recess directly from the rink.  Please send a pocket snack that they could eat after skating.

In Science today, we had a Drop Drag Race to investigate which liquid moved faster down a slanted surface....such fun!

There was no chance for any liquid that was up against cooking oil! 
1st place went to cooking oil.....4th place went to molasses!
