RESEARCH TOPICS ANNOUNCED (updated EACH DAY THIS WEEK)

We are picking our areas of research this week for the Astronomy & Space Unit.
I will add to the list as the week progresses. Today I am posting the first grade list. For first grade, we will complete the writing and project in class, but they may also check out a book from the public library or school library and bring it to class each time. Older students may research their topic at home and bring information to class. Thanks for your help at home. :-) Mr. Petersen
