This Week in LL38....

Engineers at Work....
   
     The class received a letter last week asking for their assistance in creating an earthquake resistant building.  In order to create this building the students were being asked to research what other engineers have done before them to create buildings that hold up against earthquakes.
      The kids were very excited to start researching the materials that engineers use to create this type of building.  They will be writing a letter stating what they feel are the best materials to use to create this building and why they have chosen them based on their research.  The kids will also be creating a replica of their building this week.  The buildings will be put to to the "test" to see how they hold up against an earthquake.

Thank you to the parents that were able to donate items to help make this project a success!  :)


Module 4 Assessments

     Tomorrow your child will be coming home with their Module 4 Assessment.  As in the past, please sign and return the cover sheet stating that you have reviewed the assessment with your child.  I will then send the cover sheet back to you so that you have it at home and it can serve as a reminder as to what your child needs to review.

Just a reminder that Wednesday is a 1/2 day. Dismissal will be at 11:40.

I hope everyone has a great week!
