We are loving Middle School!!!! I was concerned that since the fifth and sixth graders are in their own school that it would be a hard transition and Rae would be growing up too fast, too soon. Not to worry. The teachers are expecting more academically, but, the kids are still kids and they have lots of "fun" activities like clubs and interests groups after school. Rachel is in the pen pals club (not her choice - that one was assigned, but she has a pen pal in California - they e-mail and she is enjoying it) and she started taking violin after school.
These photos were taken at "Math and Science Night", which a chance for the parents to meet all the math and science teachers and see what the curriculum is for the year. We did lots of hands-on stuff with light and probability, but the only time I though to get out the camera was when the ladies made test-tube rainbows out of different colors of water, each color having a different salinity. It was a fun night. Rae is dressed up because the students were to come in costume as their favorite story character or scientist. (She's Laura Ingalls Wilder)
