Boggling our Brains!

Good evening! I hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend. We are learning so much and are so excited to share with you what we have in store! This weekend, NCS was invited to partake in a ministry opportunity that services to schools in the area. Each teacher received $300 in products for the classroom! I am so grateful for this amazing opportunity. Supplies tend to run low, and this is just a way to replenish without the costs! Thank you to Teacher's Desk of Buffalo!
This week, we are continuing to dive into to the nervous system. The students loved learning about the parts of the brain and the responsibilities of each part. We were able to dissect the brain, tongue, and eye of a deer! The students were great scientists! Stay tuned for pictures! This week we are starting to focus disabilities and the importance of accepting differences. Cerebral Palsy will be the topic of study this week and how it affects our nervous system.  We are hoping to work closely with People Inc. to partner and help us in becoming experts and seeing what we can do for our community to make a difference. The salt map project is hard at work. The kids got to create salt maps of the brain and are in the stages of the final production! They look amazing!
Please be advised that our math homework will begin to skip around. We are working diligently to make sure that your children have the skills necessary for the state assessment in April.
