History: Upon our return from Spring Break, we will learn about why and how pioneers traveled west. Your child will discuss the Oregon Trail, California gold rush, and the Transcontinental Railroad. Ask your child how the Pony Express worked. Our Pioneers are gearing up for their field trip to the Pioneer Living History Museum on March 22!
Science: Students will study levers and learn how they make work easier. We will also have just a short quiz on Tuesday. Ask your student to tell you about all six types of simple machines.
