Valentine's Day

Dear Families,

On February 12 your children will have a small Valentine celebration. This will be a time for them to deliver and read their cards as well as have a little treat. If they would like to create a box or bag at home to gather their cards that would be great. Attached is a class list for your children to use when writing cards for all of their classmates.

Happy Days,

Cathy

Bridges!

The time has come for our family bridge project. Last week, students assembled their own popsicle stick bridges based on Portland's own bridges. Some students even tested them to determine how much they would hold. We found out that the heavier bridges did not always hold more. We hope all the bridges made it home in one piece!

Now it's your turn to create your own version of a Portland bridge at home. Below is a link to the assignment that went home today. Have fun!
