We will integrate science with art as third graders create a beautiful phases of the moon art piece in mosaic tiles in our Douglas Elementary courtyard.

100th Day Fun

We took a quick break last Thursday to have some fun during the 100th day of school.  Students made predictions on whether they could reach the center of their tootsie pop with more or less than 100 licks.  They then enjoyed testing their predictions with tasty, cherry tootsie pops.  Enjoy the pics below!
