Don't eat all the peeps before participating in the Reading With my Peeps Photo Contest! Due April 10.
Mrs. McDonald's class read a book this week from our Geodes series called Frank's Ice Pops. When Frank was 11 years old, he accidentally invented the "ice pop" which later became known as the Popsicle. They made "popsicles" in class today.
