Happy Halloween!

Make a picture slideshow

Elsa, a gangster, a robot - oh my!  We had lots of fun at our Harvest Party this afternoon.  We made mini-donut spiders, played Witch Pitch and Roll and Cover Spider, spun a spiderweb, made a pinecone spider and did a science experiment.  Thanks to all of our volunteers!  Have a fun and safe Halloween!

Bird Feeders

Our first anthology is all about how people and animals interact with one another.  After reading one of our stories called Get The Egg! there were some instructions on how to make a bird feeder.  We had just gotten a large shipment of pinecones from the Blaschko family so we decided to try the project out!  It was a super fun way to help the feathered friends who live in our backyards!  We hope they attract some beautiful birds for your family to enjoy.

Game Truck Visits Falcon Ridge!

Today a Game Truck visited Falcon Ridge as a reward for those students who sold 25 items or more for our Chip Shoppe fundraiser!  We had one friend from our class who reached this goal.  He said it was AWESOME!

Science Museum Field Trip

We had an AWESOME time at the Science Museum of Minnesota today!  First we got to spend about 20 minutes in the Butterfly House which was UH-mazing!  The butterflies literally landed right on the kids.  They were in butterfly heaven :)  Then, after a quick lunch, we got to watch the Omni Theatre show called "The Flight of the Butterflies".  The Omni experience is incredible, in and of itself, but this particular show is outstanding.  What a great way to celebrate our science study of life cycles!
