Finally Friday and a long week of unrest after the senseless killing of George Floyd. No one should die or be treated differently because of the color of their skin. Hopefully, we can have courageous conversations to end racism in the United States. For our kids, Sesame Street is holding a Town Hall Meeting – sounds like a good place to start. Touch picture for:
And Finally Friday and talking about strawberries yesterday jogged my memory of all the fresh fruit and vegetables that you can buy around Buffalo in the summer!

Today, we will be learning more about that picture I posted on Tuesday. It is a fossil and specifically, it is called a trilobite. There is a dig site in Hamburg,NY called Penn Dixie where you can go dig your own Fossils on the ground. If your parents ever want someplace to take you, I recommend spending a day at Penn Dixie looking for your very own Fossils! Click on the picture to see their website.
Let learn a bit more about Fossils:
As always,mhead on over to Mobymax Science on your iPad and look for the lesson called:
What is a fossil? And what does it tell us?
What can Fossils tell us about extinct plants and animals?
Please work today, tomorrow and this weekend, finishing up your assigned Science lessons for this week, if you haven’t already done them.

Today, we are going to examine extinct and endangered species. Watch this to learn more:
To practice what you just learned, go to Mobymax Science and complete the lesson on extinct species and the one on endangered species. Try taking the test at the end and see how you do. Remember, you are reading with a purpose!
Math
Sometimes in math, we know the answer or solution but we don’t know one of the numbers that make the problem true.
For example, look at this problem:
4 + 6 + S + 4 = 20
We know 20 is the solution to the addition problem but we have to find out or solve what “S” is equal to. 6In this problem, we call S – the unknown – simply because we don’t know it!
When you do a bit of addition, you find that
14 + S = 20
So we know if we add 6 to 14 to get to 20, our problem will be true. S must be equal to 6.
So today, you will using this same concept with polygons and finding their perimeter. We may Be missing a side length, but we know that is a part of a whole number that we doknow. You will need to find the missing length(s).
Watch this:
Now practice with these:
That’s all for today! See you tomorrow! 🐬MC

How is everyone today? I hope you got outside yesterday for some of that beautiful fresh air! If you did, you might have been lucky and found something like the picture above in a rock. Post a comment if you know what these are called – there may be two answers!

Good Morning Earthlings!
Did you get to see the rocket launch on Saturday?
It took two astronauts to the International Space Station. Both these men are Dads and they have boys about your age. Their job is that they are test pilots which means they are flying this new spacecraft dragon for the first time.
Watch this video to see a tour of the International Space Station. Maybe one of you will grow up to be an astronaut or a test pilot?
You could even be one of the many people on the ground in mission control. Mission control is the room where the people sit at their computers and control remotely all the parts of the spacecraft.
Here are some fun puzzle sheet for you to do, if you like!
