Home Challenge/Project:  Find time to go outside at night and look at the stars.  See if you can find the Big Dipper and the north star.  Check out these fun games with your child for 1/2 hour.  There are some great math games they would need help with them.  It’s Nasa’s website.  Our Buzz Light year fan will really dig this!  http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forkids/kidsclub/flash/index.html

Recipe for the Banana boats we made last week.
Take a half of a banana, peel, and cut lengthwise.  Put peanut butter in between banana.  Make a sail out of cheese and put on with a toothpick.  Then decorate banana and sail with raisins stuck on with peanut butter.
