Theresa Seip from the Federation for Children With Special Needs (FCSN) will present "Understanding My Child’s Learning Style". The different ways people take in and generate information can greatly affect how and whether they succeed in school and in life. This workshop will delve into different learning styles and show how they can be understood and harnessed to achieve success in many different environments, including the classroom.

All meetings are FREE and open to the public.

This March students from Ms. Andrews’s 7^th grade science class developed a game to be played in space.  The “NASA Girls” won 3^rd place in the national NASA “Spaced Out Sports Challenge.”  An Astronaut on the International Space Station will play the game the students designed as it orbits the Earth.  The students’ video of the game will also be featured on the NASA “Spaced Out Sports” website.  (http://education.ssc.nasa.gov/spacedoutsports.asp)
