It is great to be back at school after such a fun and relaxing spring break. I was lucky to spend a week at the Smoky Mountain National Park in Tennessee. We went hiking on the trails, did lots of shopping, watched for wildlife, and I even went zip-lining! My family had a blast and it helped me remember how much fun exploring the outdoors can be. I hope you had a great break as well. Here are a few things to check out this week on the blog:
1. I have finally finished uploading the second part of the Wizard of Proficiency. You can view it here, and don’t forget: MAP testing starts next week!

2. **Update: We have our first pip! Remember, the pip is the first hole an eaglet will poke through the egg before hatching. Once the pip arrives, the eaglet should hatch in 24-48 hours!
Don’t forget about the eagles! All three of the American Bald Eagle eggs should be hatching this week. Check out the video here:
3. Our classmates have completed their birds of prey power points in library. Check out their presentations below:
