I hope you get lots of family time and lots of play time this summer. You guys were absolutely terrific with the post CRCT Animal Kingdom curriculum. We all learned a great deal about crabs, squid, snails (like - they won't come our of their shells when you need them too), worms, leeches (who knew they were so beautiful when they swim?) and baby octopuses.
I promised to add the link for one of the video clips from the last week. The Toys from trash video is from the TED website - great ideas. Go to http://www.ted.com/talks/arvind_gupta_turning_trash_into_toys_for_learning.html Take the time to watch the whole video. And if you find the directions to make that foldable, please send me the link. The You Tube videos we watched for fun were the sleep walking dog and the fainting goats.
Congratulations to the following students who made 100% on the Science CRCT: DJ, Mateo, Karan, David W. and Matthew O. Way to Go!
Have an awesome summer. I miss you guys already, Mrs. A.
