We had a great time today meeting our buddies and helping them with their Hispanic Heritage month project: making Mayan masks. We are going to be studying Ecuador for our country, and will begin working on our research projects and artwork next week. If you have any experiences that you'd like to share with the class, please let me know!

Our science test will be next week on Thursday, September 20. On Monday, September 24 we will have our social studies test. The students already received their science study guide, and should be filling it out and studying from it. They will get their social studies study guide on Monday.

Below, you can see pictures of the students working with their buddies and in their science centers. I was able to borrow materials from the Nature Museum so students could investigate reptile and amphibian skeletons, and look at real turtle shells and snake skin!
