Music trip days 2 and 3 did not disappoint. Students explored the Natural Bridge Caverns- 1st group in 10 years to use special paths due to rising water, Sea World, Riverwalk, a boat tour, a ghost tour, the Alamo, San Antonio's Fiesta, and the Tower of America's- the second tallest observation tower in the US! The also are loving Tim and Tim, better known as T2, our tour guide and bus driver! They also have enjoyed marching to the beat of their own drums, showing off their musical talents singing and dancing to songs from today and yesterday!










The 4th graders worked together to solve a water cycle problem in Mission.io today! They scored best in collaboration, critical thinking, and application. My favorite part was hearing them encourage each other saying: "We got this!"
