Here we all are, on May 19, with Professor Rolston, discussing World War II, Einstein, Heavy Water and Atomic vs Hydrogen Bombs! We all learned so much and are very glad Professor Rolston had the time to see us!

 

 

We welcomed Ms. Hyland and Miss Mouse to Cedar Grove on Wednesday, April 9. Our 4th and 5th grade classes heard her speak about Newfoundland dogs, and her book, The Wreck of the Ethie. The Booketeers got a special audience before the assembly, and got to ask those questions that our book discussion couldn't answer!
