Weekly Update

Students have also worked on some science challenges, like an A-Z crossword puzzle, and the Super Scientists Challenge. In the Super Scientists Challenge, students decoded a secret code to find the answers for different types of scientists. If they finished the first level, they tried to match the scientists to their descriptions. If they made it to the third level yet, they would be putting the scientists into a crossword puzzle.
Our science students have worked hard on writing in their science journals - making predictions, writing observations, and explaining their observations. They have also worked at drawing and labeling pictures from their experiments.
It has been a great first week! Looking forward to next week!
