4th grade and 3rd grade Homework Link (Tarea)

Here's the link to the Artic question: In the Artic today, is there more day-time or night-time? look for the answer in the following link...

Dear Parents,
For your students in 4th and 3rd grade the homework assignment is simple. Go onto the USGS link above and click on the girl with pig tails: Got questions?. The question to What's the weather like? How many hours of daylight do you get? has the answer below it.
The student needs to answer in Spanish...
En el Ártico hay más tiempo de...
día/noche.

a note about her...
Our ex-Shorecrest parent and local Scientist Dr. Lisa Robbins (and very good friend) is onboard the USCGC Healy directing an Artic Ocean Acidification Research. She will be there for a few months. I found it a great way for the kids to see from beginning to end how a trip like that might benefit us all as well as ask questions.

Don't worry, I am integrating some Spanish vocabulary :-)
