🧅😭 We're crying just thinking about this grade 5 science lesson! Mrs. Witkowski explored bulk scale matter vs. particle scale matter with students, & cut up onions to observe chemical reactions. When sliced, stable molecules in the onion’s tissues transform into a volatile, sulfur-containing gas that reacts with the eyes to form sulfuric acid. Cue the itching, burning & tears!

📖 To celebrate #ReadAcrossAmerica Week, Mrs. Baker's 4th Graders participated in a book scavenger hunt! Students searched for different books & read a little bit in the book they found. Many students even checked out the books they "hunted down" to take home and finish reading.
Our students observed #AshWednesday today with an all day retreat. Before Mass & the distribution of ashes, they got together in their #FaithFamilies to complete a service project - hand tied blankets for veterans and those affected by the California wildfires. #SERVICE

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the start of the Lenten season! SMS students will attend Mass tomorrow and receive ashes before they begin their school-wide Lenten Retreat.
Today however, is known as Shrove or "Fat" Tuesday. "Shrove" comes from an old English word meaning “to confess”. It is also customary to use up meats, fats, and dairy products before entering the Lenten period of fasting; this led to the name Mardi Gras (French for Fat Tuesday). Some cultures celebrate today with specific foods like pancakes, pączki , cannoli or king cake. Let us know what your favorite Fat Tuesday treat is in the comments!
