Parents,
Science experiment. Wow! My e-mail was dinging all night with submissions of the paper clip surface tension challenge. (14 students so far) See all of the pictures I received posted at the class website. (Some early submissions are now on another page. Click "older" at the bottom to see those, too.)

Culture Boxes. Today, Mr. Manos handed out directions for the culture box project your child will be completing in Social Studies . This is a terrific project in which students will research a country of their heritage, create a "culture box" of artifacts related to this country, and present on this to the class. Like all big projects, the key is to break it down into smaller parts and to start early. A copy of the letter that went home today is attached. It has a sign and return portion at the bottom.
