Tis the Season to Build a Village









The children created many unique and creative gingerbread houses this week. They constructed many different homes from the variety of ingredients donated by parents. When they completed their homes they arranged them on a small community map according to their coordinates. Thank you to all the parents for the many donations and a special thanks to Mrs. Aiello, Mrs. O'Leary, Mrs. Fisher, Mrs. Goldstein, Mr. Valdavia, Mrs. Elefante and Mr. Joss for volunteering their time!

The Power of Water



Students ended the Water Unit by making water wheels. They learned how flowing water could be used to help move a load. The demonstrations were a lot of fun even though they sometimes got a little wet!
