"Today in science, we got to play around with the doughnut magnets and figure out what stuff didn't have iron in it if we could get it to stick to the magnet." -Caydence
"We also tried to make little chains with our magnets." -Savahna
"We figured out that holding a magnet and something that is attracted to it and then putting something magnetic on that will leave some magnetism. So then what you were holding against the magnet acts like a magnet. It's called induced magnetism. My group and Ethan and Eli made a care out of magnets and we almost got it to move, but we were a little stuck on getting the wheels to stay on." -Liz
"Me and Ashton were using a nail or paperclip to move the magnet and we did a bunch of obstacle courses and we also made the nail stand up and moved it with the magnet." -Haylie

"At recess I went on the red bars and I learned how to do watermelon backwards by myself instead of someone taking my feet and pushing them. On the yellow bars, me and Caydence were doing a lot of flips and it was really fun!" -Lilith
"In math, we were identifying and drawing parallel lines." -Lila
"In ELA rotations, we learned about the Wright Brothers and Amelia Earhart and how the Wright Brothers invented the airplane and Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean alone." -Eli

"During pictures, I got a nickname and I forgot what it was. Then Erin asked what hers was and he gave her the exact same one. It was Lindy-Loo." -Caydence
"I didn't know it was picture day and it turns out I've taken 3 pictures and I'm going to have to do one more for Bloomsday club!" -Liz
"In math rotations, I was in Mrs. Gil's rotation and we worked on decimals a lot." -Lila
