WELCOME BACK: School resumes after winter break on Tuesday, January 5. No homework was assigned over the break, but new homework packets will be sent home on Friday, January 8 and are due back by Friday, January 15. This month we will begin a new social studies unit on governmental systems, and students will begin working on their first book report of the year. Bandelier will also be holding a 'Science Week' about which more information will be posted soon. Keep checking back!
SCIENCE WEEK: January 25 - 29 will be Science Week at Bandelier. All grade levels will be focusing on science and the scientific method via all curricular areas (writing, reading, etc.) to demonstrate how science happens all the time. In our classroom, students will be conducting a whole class experiment as well as working in small groups to conduct further experiments. All students are welcome to conduct their own science experiments at home for extra credit and will be displayed during Science Night on Friday, January 29. We hope you can join us!
