This week may have only had three school days in it but it has been very busy! We have had four speakers this week and have been finishing up our Three Branches of Government part of our current PBL project. The students have done a great job listening and asking questions and all of our speakers have been very complimentary! The students have learned about the election process and about a lot of different jobs. At the end of the day today our entire school will be able to participate in a Skype call from Shaqulle O'Neal. We had a Riverside 6th grader who wrote him a letter and from there it evolved into this unique opportunity. The kids are so excited and so are we!
Next week will be equally crazy with fire safety, explorations and our next step in our PBL project! It should be fun. We hope this kids get some rest over Fall Break and are ready for a very busy week next week!
