In Science we continued reading our Astronomy unit. We talked about the life of Edwin Hubble. What things interest you? Do you like sports, music, or perhaps learning new things? Edwin Hubble loved sports as a young man, but he went on to become one of the best astronomers in the world. Edwin Powell Hubble was born in Marshfield, Missouri, on November 20, 1889. He was very bright but preferred sports to his studies. It wasn't until he was in college that he really concentrated on doing well in his classes. Hubble worked for years trying to get astronomy recognized as part of astrophysics. For years, he was unsuccessful. The rules were finally changed a few months after his death in 1953. Unfortunately, the prize was not awarded posthumously.



In Current Events we read the article The Crunch of an Apple and Fizz of A Soda? Yum! from Dogo News. First there were the delicious cotton candy grapes and now an effervescent apple that will have your mouth tingling with joy! Called "Paradis Sparkling", the unusual fruit is the result of eight years of research by Swiss fruit nursery Lubera.
