POOL PARTY for 7th grade on Monday, June 8th! The location is 4 minutes from the school (Ally's grandmother's house) Students will need to be dropped off and picked up from there, as we won't be meeting at the school.  Also, students, please bring a SNACK to share.  Hot dogs will be provided.

Math Olympics

Congrats to Hailie G. (bronze medal)  Anya (silver medal) and Anna (gold medal)! I am very proud of all 3 of you.  It takes a lot of bravery to do hard math problems in front of the whole school. :)

Starfish Dissection

One of the coolest starfish facts is that it ejects its stomach and starts liquefying its food outside of its body!

Lungs

Today we made models of our lungs and diaphragm. The lungs inflate when the diaphragm moves down, and deflate when the diaphragm moves up.

Color Run

GratiTour Videos!

Hope you enjoy these videos! I also want to try to make a CD of pictures for all the students. Our trip was a success, and thanks be to our God!  I would like to give a HUGE THANK YOU to Mr. Croyle, Mrs. Tuffin, Mrs. Henderson, Ms. Pollard, Mr. and Mrs. Barr, Mr. Barr's mom, Mr. Orellana, Vanessa Laizure, Mary Gomez, and Mr. Thompson for making the trip possible. Another thank you to the rest of the parents and guardians for sending your children to DRCS and raising the necessary funds!

Students, my prayer is that you remember the lessons learned on this trip. :)
