The students will be racing their balloon powered cars in the gym today as part of our science unit on the concepts of potential and kinetic energy.  Awards will be given for the fastest car, the car that traveled the greatest distance and the best looking car.  Students vote for the best looking car to determine the winner. 

In math, students will take the Chapter 3 Math Test the week of February 4th.  Concepts to be covered on the test are divisibility rules, GCF, LCM, comparing fractions and connecting fractions and decimals.   Operations with fractions will be the next unit in math.
