Hello Parents and Students,
Thank you so much for all of your generous holiday gifts! I appreciate it so much!
This week we wrapped up our STEM water filter unit. All of the water filters tested very well, and we were all able to make improved water filter designs. Check them out on the blue counter in our classroom.
We also wrapped up our Solar Energy Projects, which are displayed in the cafeteria. Today we were able to FaceTime with a representative from We Care/Share Solar. We were able to ask her some great questions and learn about the "solar backpack" program. It was a very unique experience!
I hope you all have a wonderful holiday break and a very happy new year! See you in 2016!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Fitzgerald
