Students Share Their Rocks and Minerals!
Today, students brought in their rocks. The fun part was trying to figure which rock belonged to which student. Each person wrote the characteristics of his/her own rock. Everyone became "geo-detectives" as they tried to match the clues to the rocks.

The Water Cycle
We reviewed parts of the water cycle today. Here is a bulletin board I made from old fabric scraps and yarn. Students became water molecules and wrote comic strips about their water cycle adventure!

Daylight Saving Time: Set Clocks Ahead 1 Hour

WASHINGTON — Spring is closer than you think, and here's a sure sign: daylight saving time arrives this weekend.
Most Americans will set their clocks 60 minutes forward before heading to bed Saturday night, and most smart phones should update automatically. Daylight saving time officially starts Sunday at 2 a.m. local time.
You may lose an hour of sleep, but daylight saving time promises an extra hour of evening light for months ahead.
It's also a good time to put new batteries in warning devices such as smoke detectors and hazard warning radios.
The time change is not observed by Hawaii, most of Arizona, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam and the Northern Marianas.
