February 13

We had so much going on today!  First, it was Crazy Hat Day and many of the students wore silly, creative hats to school. 
Next, we closed out our study of the moon, with a What Do YOU Know About the Moon? game-show like activity.  The kids did a great job working in teams to answer the questions correctly.  Questions ranged from "the moon is made of cheese"- true or false? to "what are the three things that determine a crater's size?"  Ask your child to tell you some of the other questions they aced!  The students also got to make a small model of the moon out of clay, craters and highlands included.  We did an activity which tries to simulate how a crater is formed.  Ask your child to tell you about that as well; it was very exciting!
Finally, at the end of the day, we "celebrated" Valentine's Day by distributing valentines and starting an activity packet.
All on the day before the vacation!
Enjoy, stay warm and happy shoveling!
