Reminders:
April 1:  biography home project due. Please make sure your student is making progress on his/her project to be ready by then!

April 4, 5:30-6:30pm:  Biography essay and home project fair.
We are holding an evening event on April 4 that will be similar to a science fair set up with the Strawberry students stationed by their projects and essays about famous Americans.  Guests will get a chance to visit the projects and talk to the researchers about the person they studied.  There will be light snacks provided.  This is the same evening as the Wildcat dinner/dance event in the Depot.  Families with students in Wildcat will still be able to visit Strawberry and attend the Wildcat event.

April 11: Sacramento Amtrak Field Trip: Strawberry Creek will be going to the California Train Museum in Sacramento as part of our Westward Movement study on Thursday, April 11, 2013.  Please note the late return time from this trip as 5:00pm with pick up at the Berkeley Amtrak train station.


Biographies, Wordly Wise, Crosswords!
This morning we focused on revising and editing our biographies in small groups. While meeting in groups, students also worked on Wordly Wise and a digestive system crossword.
