Oh My-What a Day!

Wow-we had a GREAT day today right from when we got off the bus at Norm's Island until we left Zoo Montana. We learned so many incredible, amazing facts about so many more animals other than just otters. We also learned about erosion, ecosystems, and the Yellowstone River. Your child's nightly writing/science assignment tonight is to write 15 new facts that they learned today with correct capitalization, punctuation, and 4th grade quality. If your child talks to you about the field trip while they are writing and can tell you 5 cool facts, write otters in the planner.
As you can see, we had a great time and learned tons.
Tests coming up: We are having our Math test on Monday for Chapters 2 & 3 and also our Social Studies states & capitals test has been moved up to Monday. I had originally said Tuesday, but forgot we only have 1/2 day.
Tomorrow's Angel Tree/Giving buy-in day is "chew gum" for $1.00. Supply your own gum. Today, we earned $296 for our families in need. Thank you and I love how many of the kids are taking the $ out of their own savings. How cool is that!
Have a great night and enjoy a couple of my favorite pics for now.
