Waves, and Tsunamis

Today is the 3rd day of the school year.

Today's color was pink.

It was the Sunny! 

Our monthly topic is Oceans. 

Today we are doing a wave experiment and will learn how to make a Tsunami.

This month's poet is Poet of the Month - Matthew Arnold   (1822 - 1888).

We read a poem about independence day:

Americans in Strength
by Roger Robicheau

Americans in strength unite
This union born in freedom’s light

United States, how sure we are
We’ll pull together, near and far

The world can see of what we’re made
Each state is of the highest grade

Determination, filled with pride
Our people’s will won’t be denied

Our founding fathers set to stay
The road we’ve traveled to this day

A quest for right cannot be wrong
With help from God, we will stay strong

Support our troops ranks number one
For the job they do is never done

When forced they put it on the line
True patriots, when called they shine

Let’s raise Old Glory with a cheer
And thank all soldiers, past and here
