Ok, so it's a model of a volcano and we appropriately named it Mount Belle Chasse (pronounced cha-see). While studying about slow and fast changes to the Earth's surface, we chose to see as best as we could, a fast change to the Earth. We also discussed rocks formed from volcanoes, whether or not to live around a volcano, and what is going on inside a volcano.
You know, if you can't bring the students to the volcano....bring the volcano to the students!

Giving Back to Our Community Through Planting
So our year long relationship with the Woodlands had to come to an end sometime, so we went out with a big bang! Our two classes planted over a hundred saplings and seedlings to replenish an area of the Woodlands and to give back to our community as good citizens. We were joined by parents and community officials to mark this momentous occasion. Years from now or even next week, we can go out there and stand in awe as we admire the new life that we helped bring to our community. It was hard work too!!! These students pushed shovels in the ground and got down and dirty as they all got into this project in a big way. I only hope that the milkweed we planted attracts many new butterflies to our area as well. Check out this quick look at what we did...
