Thursday Homework

Not too much homework for the weekend. I would really like them to be working on their Science Fair projects as we only have two class days next week before we go to McQueen Lake. I would like them to check this weekend that they have winter clothes that fit and are comfortable at McQueen Lake. They also need to make sure that they have bedding (foamy, sleeping bag, pillow/pillow substitute) and plastic cup, bowl, plate as well as fork, spoon and knife. I don't want these things left until the last minute. If you do need to borrow anything, please let me know and I will ask the class if anyone has extras. Have a great long weekend!
