Week 18 (S2W3)
“Rhythm and harmony find their way into the inward places of the soul.”
Science Fair - Home Stretch!
It was so exciting to see everyone’s Science Fair projects! They should be polishing their presentations and creating their Research Paper out of their Research Plan this week. We will be presenting to the Foundations classes next week in formal dress. We are finalizing our arrangements for judging, hopefully for this week or next week during our Challenge day. Need inspiration? If you haven’t watched the Science Fair movie, I highly recommend it! It was great! [Streaming on Prime or Disney+]
Secret Garden Papers - PLEASE USE THE CHECKLIST IN THEIR LTW APPENDIX! I highly recommend reading their paper for spelling, grammar, and quality. They will be reading their papers in class on Monday. Please also have Door in the Wall read for Monday! (It’s short!)
