Colorado History:
· Last week the students created maps identifying the four regions of our state and important facts about each region.

· Our final project for this unit will be a relief map of Colorado. Please send in the play dough and 8 X 8 “ cardboard by Tuesday.
Science:
· Last week we finished our experiment on the water property of surface tension.
