We have had lots of fun in the last week. We have also now been in school for a month and a half.  approaching Halloween approaches. I hope everyone is looking forward to it. I know I am! In music, Mrs.Wolreich’s class is doing Halloween music and Mr. Morgan’s class has switched from clarinet to doing violin with Ms. Blum. I am finding library very cool because this week we used maps101 to look up our immigrant’s country with Mrs. Feldman. We are now using EEEPCs, which are very small white laptops, in a way. The New Lab created a favorites tab with everything we need such as typing, internet, a documents program and firstclass. Science is getting very exciting because we are taking our science journals home and have finished our crystals unit with Ms. Jones. That’s all for now, readers!
