Hi Families!

A quick reminder that this Wednesday, February 6 is an early release day. As usual, students will have lunch and recess at MBS and will be dismissed at 12:45.

Last week in science we started our magnet unit. We began by watching putty surrounding two different magnets.

With partners, we acted as scientists and tried to think about two questions: 1. How does the putty surround the magnets? 2. Why does the putty surround the cube magnet faster than the ring magnet? Students drew diagrams with labels and wrote down observations, wonderings, and thoughts. We’ll continue to think about these questions during the remainder of this unit. Ask your child to share their thinking with you!

Friday was World Read Aloud Day! We were lucky enough to invite Mrs. Morin, our math coordinator for the district, in to read “The Man Who Walked Between the Towers” and “The Princess and the Pig.”
