Just a quick update for Science.  We have started a weather project this week 
in science.  The students had to choose a city they were familiar with~ 
either through someone living there or having visted there or wanting to 
visit there~  We are recording the weather in Poughkeepsie in class, but each 
student must record the weather data for their city independently everyday 
until November 29.  They will use this data in their final weather project, 
so it will be an improtant part of their unit grade!  Ths link to they site 
they must use is on my Links for Science page.  It is the last link.  

Please check out the Science and ELA Happenings as the homework will be posted
on the calendars.
