Crazy times!

So, well things have been beyond crazy around here with standardized testing taking place over the next couple weeks.  We are studying stars; characteristics, magnitude, color, and life cycles.  This will all lead into our Constellation Project that will begin probably next week.  For that project, students will need foam board.  Any color, but black usually looks amazing!  Stay tuned for more updates!
