If you happen to see some fresh California rolls while you are shopping soon, it would make for an interesting addition to your dinner, and I know your second grader would love to try it.
Monday March, 4 we will begin our science unit called "Earth Materials." Kids will read, explore and experiment while learning about different types of soil, rock and water. If your family has an interesting rock, magazine article about any of these topics, a book, or a video that you'd allow your child to share, we would love to see it. Kids may take time to go "rock hunt" by the lake as the weather warms and try to identify what they find.
Next Friday, our PIE partners, City Hall will be coming to teach us about storm water. We will also make cool rain sticks.
