STEM Lab relocated to the Science Lab for the duration of TELPAS testing and we were very busy adjusting to the new routines that involves. K-2 made some excellent progress in Code.org and started exploring new tools and materials for creating and building. 3^rd-5^th worked on their personal milk carton mini planetariums and set up personal BrainPOP accounts. These will allow them to better direct and manage their independent learning projects.

Our Monarch Heroes were thrilled to see signs of life in the gardens! Also, a very generous gift of 500lbs of soil allowed us to set up two new beds! Every PK-2^nd class got a reused egg carton seed-starting kit to get us started on replanting and replenishing the habitats!
