Miss Jessica’s class is taking a field trip!!

To celebrate all that we’ve learned about pets this year during our study, we are going on a field trip to the AHeinz57 Pet Rescue and Transport in De Soto, Iowa! We will tour the facilities and talk with the volunteers and owner at the animal shelter.

Information about our field trip:
Where: AHeinz57 Pet Rescue and Transport, De Soto, IA
When: Thursday, April 26
Who: AM and PM classes will both go during their regular class times
(All-day students will go twice)

* Students who are late for preschool on this day will be sent home if the bus has already left for the field trip. AM bus leaves at 8:45, PM bus leaves at 12:30.

* Parents are welcome to attend the field trip with us! Please let me know ahead of time if you plan on coming with your child so we can make arrangements.

* As a service project, we will be taking donations to the shelter with us. The shelter is currently in need of pet toys, newspaper without ads, and other items you are willing to donate, such as food or treats. You can send any donations with your child to school from now until we attend the field trip. (Donations are appreciated, but not required.)

* If you have questions or concerns, please contact the office or Miss Jessica directly. If I do not hear from you, I will assume you are okay with your child attending the field trip. Please let me know if your child has pet allergies or other info I need to be aware of prior to the field trip.

Things are heating up in Science!
8th grade science students have been studying heat transfer this week. Each lab group had to design and make a device to maintain heat in hot water inside a small medicine bottle. The catch was, they only could choose three materials to use. They tested their devices today by taking the temperature every minute for ten minutes. Students explained their devices to the class and predictions were made. Each group displayed their data for comparison.
