Friday at Mabry will be a time of celebrating our cultural roots. During Social Studies, students will view a video about cultural diversity. After the video, we will have an international tasting. Please bring in a snack that represents your cultural origins. Students always enjoy this treat. Last year, one student brought in Portuguese cupcakes that were delicious! Lunch will offer a variety of ethnic treats: egg rolls, fried chicken, and quesadillas. In the afternoon, we will be treated to a performance by Soweto Street Beat an African dance troupe. Thanks PTSA for making this performance possible. We are excited about International Day!

Our study of geysers, springs, and wells brought about an interesting discussion of geyers. Most students had heard about Old Faithful, the most well-known of all geysers. Thanks to the World Wide Web, we here in Mrs. Krodman's science class can hop on a computer and experience Yellowstone National Park's geysers with the click of a mouse.

So, click here and experience the geysers for yourself.
