Many classes at school had fun celebrating Dr. Seuss's birthday. Mrs. Hobbs and Ms. Duston's class did an informational writing piece about Thedor Seuss Giesel all week. Then on Thursday, we celebrated with reading, art projects, treats, and writing assignments.
Mrs. Smith's first grade had a read across America party where they all brought their pillows and blankets and read.
Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

On Friday, January 27th, the sixth grade got to go on a field trip to Clark Planetarium. When we arrived the students got to explore the building and play with all their interactive equipment. They could play on mars, control robots, take quizzes, act like they were news reporters, and so much more. Then we went and ate lunch at the gateway mall. When we came back we went into the DOME theater and learned all about constellations, moon phases, and how the earth rotates. After that we went to a show about why we have seasons on earth.
