Last month Madelyn was in an Eco-Meet. This was a contest sponsored by the Army Corps Of Engineers where 27 area schools competed. The students from each school were chosen by the teachers as the best science students in their class. There were 2 students from 4th grade and 2 students from 5th grade. The student teams competed by learning about different ecological subjects and had tests. The team or school with the most points at the end won. Madelyn's school placed first out of all the schools. The local paper finally had an article about it and here is the

Madelyn had her Apple Valley School day at school. It was a simulation of a pioneer school in 1854. Each of the students assumed an identity of an immigrant from the period. They performed three plays and then had a graduation ceremony where they all received a graduation certificate. Each of the students had to earn points while working on this project to graduate. Here are the pics.

Mackenzie and Dawn went on the 1st grade field trip to the Madison zoo. The day started with rain but soon the rain stopped and they had a great visit to the zoo. They got to see lots of animals including the largest known rodent.(It is labeled in the pictures).
Here are the pictures from the trip.
