Our tadpole "Buddy" has transformed into a small frog and we will chart his growth over the next few weeks. The class has had a lot of fun watching the transformation. This week also saw the 8th annual Jump Rope For Heart activity. You can view all the pictures on the WHE website.
We also kicked off the PTO fall fundraiser. We had an assembly showcasing the prize package and the pizza sales brochure. We look forward to "Fire Safety" week next week. We also had a substitute this Friday as I attended a conference in the Quad Cities. The best part of the conference for me was the drive home. I drove through the wind turbine fields of central illinois and saw over 100 giant wind turbines. I took a lot of photos and hope to use them in a science unit very soon. One picture is posted here. It was really interesting to think about this alternate energy source.
