It's 2018!

Hello and welcome back!

I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas break and enjoyed a well-deserved break with family and friends! I'm really excited to be back and get right back into work!

2018 has been great so far (despite this cold weather!). We're finishing up our Air, Aerodynamics, and Flight unit in Science with Flight - we're going to be researching an animal or insect that flies and make a parachute that will safely drop an egg to safety as our final two projects. We've started our big focus on writing in Language Arts, which has changed up how we do Morning Work. We're utilizing Barbara Mariconda's Empowering Writers resources and will be focusing on genre before jumping into narrative writing utilizing the writing diamond.

January is going to be a really fun and busy month - we have swimming lessons every Tuesday and Thursday morning, which should be a lot of fun!

Also starting back up is Souper Stars! This is really exciting for us because we didn't know if we would get a second chance after they had a change in scheduling during September-December. They'll be starting back up with us at the end of January!

Thanks for all your continued support, I hope everyone has a fantastic New Year!
