I was given the opportunity to get back in the classroom a bit this spring. Horn hosted a Club Invention school class and I was the 1st - 3rd grade teacher on Tuesday afternoons. In eight weeks we completed a unit called Castles, Catapults and Coat of Arms. The students and I explored The Dark Ages, buoyancy and a few simple machines. Sylvia was able to join me and enjoyed the majority of it although it made for a full day. A big thanks also goes out to Grandma and Nana for watching the boys, a good friend and fellow PTO member for doing the leg work and getting the class going, the wonderful parents who volunteered in my classroom and my hubby. Dan helped me in multiple ways from finding a Bill Nye the Science Guy video for me so I could try to understand pulleys to making levers for me to use in class.
