The Science Fair at Barton Creek is fun!  Anabell and Rafya interviewed several students and a teacher and this is what they learned.  We hope you enjoy listening.

This week the fifth grades from Valley View and Barton Creek performed commercials about the first colonies for each other.  They did not have to take busses or go to each others' schools.  They met each other over a video conference.  In our podcast this week Cameron interviews several fifth graders to see what they thought about the experience. The interviews were done on the playground, so you will notice a lot of background noise.

The First Graders at BCE are terrific writers.  This week they have prepared some advice for you. Whitney, Johnny, Alai and Lisa have recorded them and even added a joke for your enjoyment.  Please comment!

For the next three weeks before school gets out for Christmas our Fifth Graders do something they call the Joy Drive.  They put boxes in front of each classroom and collect toys for less fortunate kids.  The classroom that collects the most toys gets a prize.  They also have a weekly Word Problem Contest.  For the next few weeks fifth graders will be reading their word problems.  Can you solve them?  If you can then click on COMMENT below and leave your answer.  Be sure to tell which problem you are answering.
