As we go 'Exploring Changes of Georgia's Golden Coast', we will learn all about:
* the changes that occur in the formation of the Barrier Islands
* provide evidences of the changes in Georgia's Marsh Ecology (is it good/bad)
* debate the positive and negative impact of the growth of Beach Ecology
* Animals and Plants of the Barrier Islands
* Who General Pulaski was and the impact he made on our history
*How the history of the horses of CUMBERLAND ISLAND came to these islands and the impact they have made
Of course we will be culminating this unit with our annual trip to TYBEE ISLAND Georgia. More info on that will follow through your child's TAGTALLY.
Thank you,

Inventor: 'an inventor is someone who uses his/her imagination to create something no one else has ever made or thought of before'.......
Third grade is studying a unit called INVENTIONS and Famous Americans. We investigate all the folks who have contributed to making our life work easier. We will delve into our history of inventions.......do you know who invented the life saver, jeans, or even the glass milk bottle?
We will be creating our own inventions along the way. In this research based unit, we will research in depth the history of one or more inventors.
Our class will kick off this unit with the invention of a ....BUBBLE CREATING MACHINE! The bubbles will go off December 19th, 2015 at 8:35am.

Dear All,
Well today was the last day of the 5th grade TAG sidewalk sale. It was a huge success and I want to personally thank you for all your support. The money raised will go towards our annual 3 day trip to TYBEE ISLAND, GEORGIA that we will be taking in late February or early March.

Thanks again for all your support and care and as always, if you have any questions, please email me.
With much appreciation,
