Have You Seen The Night Sky?

We are beginning our Astronomy Unit by taking a look at the night sky over the next week. We'll be describing how the sky looks on different nights of the week (the shape of the moon, where it is in the sky, stars, clouds, etc.) and drawing what we see in our "Star Light, Star Bright Journal". We are also going to do some "planet research" to find out a little more about our Universe! We'll keep you posted!

P.S. Thanks to everyone who posted comments on our very first blog posting! I look forward to blogging with you all again soon!

Freedom Train

Today the third grade at Southern Boulevard School went to the Morristown Community Theater today to see "Freedom Train", a musical about Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad. We learned a lot about how difficult it was for slaves to leave the south in search of freedom and how Harriet Tubman made many trips back down south to help bring people up north to freedom. The play was really good and we enjoyed watching it!
