Happy Friday!

We had a great week here in the classroom. We’ve repotted our plants this week, worked on finishing up our biographies, went on a nature hike at the Eagle River Nature Center, and learned what it was like to go to school in 1915 at the pioneer school house.

Next week is our field trip to the Alaska Native Heritage Center on Tuesday. If I have not received your permission form for this trip another one will come home today. We are also still looking for another chaperone for this trip. If you would be able to join us on this trip that would be great!
