We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to our PTA!!! They have helped support our knowledge and understanding of tracking weather data. This week, we received two new weather PTA-sponsored monitoring stations. These tools will help us as we learn to identify weather instruments (thermometer, wind vane, rain gauge) and graph weather data. Thank you PTA!

We have had an opportunity this week to observe our youngest Baby Bruins grow in a duckling habitat in Ms. Mutter's 2nd-grade class! Pip, Stella, Phoebe, and Gilbert hatched last week and have grown so much! Today, they demonstrated their swimming skills. So fun!
