A kick off event for Read Across America is our annual visiting author, sponsored by Berkeley PSO. Anica Rissi is sharing her childhood and inspirations, as well as how she developed a love of reading and eventually writing her own books. http://www.anicarissi.com/
Students in Mr. Chen's Physics class use some common household materials: string, paper clips and scotch tape to make an "electric compass" that can detect the electric field around charged objects.
Read Across America Week has begun! Thank you to our PSO for decorating our school and setting the stage for a great week ahead!
