Week of 2/14

Thank goodness for the four day scheduled break!  I'm sure the students were just as ready for an extended break as I was. :)  Seventh graders are wrapping up their introduction to animals chapter by dissecting an owl pellet.  Don't know what an owl pellet is...?  Ask your child.  Most of them didn't know what one was before they started their dissection.  Pictures will be posted soon.

Eighth graders are moving on from chemistry. Today we began our physics half of the school year.  We will be studying forces and motion for the next several chapters.  Lots of good experimenting ahead!
