Engebretsen Express: Weiner Edition

Each week, my teacher sends home "The Engebretsen Express." This week, you can see that I was Star Scientist and it was all about me week. If you look extra close, you'll see that Daddy read to my class at the Book Nook. It's not on there, but Mommy was also the weekly volunteer too!

Beach Party!

Today in school we had a beach party! I made this sandy, flip floppy beach scene.

Star Scientist of the Week

Today, I was star scientist of the week in my class. I had Grandpa Walter, who is a member of the Science Fair of Iowa Hall of Fame, come up and be my special assistant.

I made an electro-magnet. Here we are hard at work.


At first, the experiment didn't work, so we had to try again.


Success!


Here is the scientist and his helper!

Ben

Watermelon!

I made a wedge of watermelon in class today. It reminds Mommy and Daddy of one that Ben made a long, long time ago.

School Projects

I seem to do school projects weekly, and this week is no exception.

Here is a bell we made to decorate school for the holidays. I got to bring it home this week.


Here is a pineapple and ham pizza I made this week.


I also got to bring home Browny Bear early, because my friend Diamalde was sick on Friday. I hope he is feeling better soon.

Northern Lights

We painted the Northern Lights in school on Wednesday. My Mom and Dad tell me that I've seen them once in real life when I was a baby, but I don't remember it.
