Los estudiantes de primero y segundo en su clase de ciencias han estado divertiéndose en explorar el clima y las diferentes condiciones que lo crean. Cada día ellos tomaron la temperatura e hicieron un gráfico en el que mostraron la temperatura registrada y el clima de afuera. También los estudiantes tuvieron diarios sobre las nubes y es divertido leer su aprendizaje nuevo sobre los diferentes tipos de nubes, utilizando los nombres como los expertos.

Weather reports

The first and second graders in their science class have been having fun exploring the weather and all of the different conditions that create it. Each day they take the temperature and record it, along with other aspects of the weather, on a classroom graph. The students are also keeping cloud journals and it is fun to hear them use their new learned knowledge as they talk about the different types of clouds by their names, just like old pros.

Our school is sustained by donations to our scholarship fund. Over one third of our students are on financial aid. To start the 2008–2009 school year we will need approximately $50,000, of which we currently have only $36,000. We are blessed by a broad base of donors, each contributing a small amount. Each one makes a difference.

_____ $230 provides an 85% scholarship for one elementary student for one month
_____ $135 provides a 50% scholarship for one elementary student for one month
