Museum Trip

This week we went to the Mantioba Museum and it was AWESOME! We went to the science gallery and we learned about our community and went to the 1920s!
The best parts of the science gallery was the matrix, the race car track, the telephone and the pulleys!
The best parts of the museum tour was the non-such (ship), the 1920s theatre, the northern lights, the bat cave & flashlights, the wolves and the dinosaurs. 

This week in our egpyt unit we've been learning about the different ancient egyptian gods and goddesses. It is INTERESTING! 

Have a super hot and hopefully not rainy weekend!

Love,
