We are very busy bees in our last 7 days of school.

In LA today, we wrote about some of the things we are looking forward to during the summer.  We also got to play review literacy games.

In Math, we learned the difference between symmetrical and congruent.

In Science we have been working on building our race cars.  They are coming along.  Most students have figured out how to get the wheels to roll (easier said than done).  We will hopefully be able to race them by Friday.

We started our drumming residency today.  We have 2 more drumming lessons on Wednesday and Friday.
