"Last night, Sami made banana bread with his mom and sister. Today, he brought a three inch share price for each teacher. I'm so happy that Sami is a part of our community," cooed Michelle.
"In Friday courses, Marley and I went upstairs to the auditorium. Everyone was already there. We learned a new dance called Row. The dance move was to row a boat. At the end, small groups did some free dancing," explained Samantha.
Last week was fun fun fun with Physics during Multi-Age Week! Water pounders, catapults, paper airplanes and experiments with Gravity! Below are some photos from catapult making on Friday, but first... here are the plans for the week.
