Look how scientific we have been in Duxbury Class.  We have investigated which material would make the best umbrella for Mike The Knight and we tested the following materials; plastic, fabric, paper towel and cardboard.  We recorded each time we tested a different material and overall we decided that the plastic was the best material.

Some of us have been learning about the different ways to spell sounds in phonics.  We had great fun making split digraph words!
