Today the 5th graders started their day by crafting cards and gifts for Teacher Appreciation Week. The primary work of the day was conducting their microscopic inquiry projects that they developed last week, following the Western Scientific Method. All groups were able to gather their data today, and next week they will interpret their data and present their findings.

Next week, we will watch presentations, start our end of the year portfolio reflections, and have a bit of a celebration for the students who won't be able to join us for the last day on May 17th.

Students are welcome to bring a special treat for themselves or to share with the class of 15 students on their last day of GATE. We have one student with a gluten intolerance.
