PCElympics

PCElympics week.  One of my favorite weeks all year long!

 

Opening ceremonies...

 

Let the games begin!

 

Tug of War champs!  Undefeated!

 

We finished the week with a gold shoe, two bronze shoes, the spirit stick (twice!), and the golden rope!  Awesome job, Team Taff!!!

Kindle Fire

Congratulations to Jakila!!!  She was the winner of the 3rd grade Kindle Fire competition.  She won a drawing based off of AR tests passed with 85% and above.  Overall for the year, Jakila has maintained an average of 90% and has earned 192.1 points!

The Science Fair

We recently had our 2015 Science Fair.  Third graders were required to complete a class project.  We chose to investigate how color affects taste.  We test-tasted several different colors of juices and predicted their flavor.  In actuality, they were all apple juice (some with a few drops of food coloring added!).

 

Atlanta field trip

The third grade Atlanta field trip was a blast!  We started off with a trip to the King Center.  We saw Ebenezer Baptist Church, where Dr. King attended and preached, as well as his home!

 

On the steps of the King home.

 

After that it was a quick stop by Centennial Park for a picnic lunch before heading off to the aquarium!

 

These jelly fish are my favorite!  (Picture unedited.)

 

Fishy faces!!

 

No matter how many times I've been, it never gets old!

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to all our wonderful moms, and those who play the part of mom!  You are loved and appreciated, and raising wonderful children!
