October 29 – November 2

OWL Pellet Dissection!  Thanks to a generous donation from the Charalambous family, each student was able to dissect, investigate, and identify bones in their own owl pellet!  We had so much fun discovering what animal was inside! 

Om!  Thanks to Ms. Sasha for another fabulous Yoga lesson!  This week we were in a haunted house!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!  Can you believe it is November?!
