Social Studies:(Suddarth)
Today we continued our crop dusting tour of the Midwest Region. Today we visited South Dakota and Detroit, Michigan. While in Michigan, we learned about the automotive industry and participated in our own assembly plant. We definitely learned about the advantages and disadvantages of being on an assembly line. It was stressful!

Reminders:
***Science Expo is due on Jan. 31. All students will present in their Language Arts classes.

Until tomorrow...
