Mr. Greg and Mr. Anibas taught Mrs. Anibas’s class about being a farmer!
Mrs. Langreck's class has been learning about different jobs. They got to learn about how people train to be astronauts, what they do up in space and what tools they need. They then got to make rockets and see whose flew the furthest.
