Hi Parents and Students,
We are in our second week of testing. Tomorrow the students will be taking the reading and language arts SAT test. It will be helpful for them to have a good night sleep.
Two students have already agreed to bring in snacks and drink for tomorrow and Wednesday. Thank you in advance.
Science- We are studying animal relationships in various ecosystems. After giving a refresher course on carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores, we learned about the different types of relationships of various types of species. Mutualism-two animals living together and both are benefiting from this union (Yak and a bird). Commensialism- two animals living together but only one benefits while the other is unharmed (a polar bear with microorganism grow on its fur). Parasitism- two animals living together with one benefiting and the other is harmed (leeches and hippo)
Tomorrow we will finish watching the movie "Up". If you have any "safe" movies that you wouldn't mind me borrowing, that would be helpful!
