Greetings today! Did you miss me? I apologize that I didn't write to you last night, but on the plus side, I did get a cd rom drive replaced in the 3rd grade room before our faculty meeting. That "drove" (get it? It is a cd DRIVE?) blogging right out of my mind.

Thanks for all of the blocks. We used them yesterday to build buildings. We tried different designs and saw how they held up to 'earthquakes' that we made. Then we simulated one of the techniques that engineers use to make buildings quake resistant by using rubber bands to connect some of the pieces.

Today we took our geography test and the class average as an A-!  YAHOO! After that was done we hung out in the lab so people could work on their Prezzis. We also took a math test but we won't find out the results on that until tomorrow. We also talked more about earthquakes and how we measure them.

By the way, remember that Friday is a half day.
