Science Fair



The Science Fair is right around the corner.  Today the packets went home and the students Questions are due for review on this Friday (1.14.11).  While searching around the internet I noticed that Google has their very own Science Fair.  Poke around their site and see if you find anything interesting!



I have also found that Discovery Education is a wonderful resource to help find, organize and share your ideas for the Science Fair.  Do you have any other sites that you have used in the past or would like to share for future reference?

PE

Today we are goal setting and doing some mid year fitness testing.

Obama calls for national moment of silence for Tucson victims



On Saturday January 8th, 2011 Tucson was stuck by tragedy. A shooting occurred in front of a local grocery store that has changed the face of not just Arizona, but the entire nation. Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was shot and remains in critical condition, sadly there are many who did not make it. Our class will be participating in a moment of silence to help support national unity in a time of great sadness. I encourage my students to share their thoughts about what has happend. There are many lives that have been effected by this event, no matter what it was a senseless tragedy that will stay with us for a long time.
