Last fall, Ms. Fields' class created symbolic monarch butterflies out of paper. They mailed them to Journey North, an organization that tracks migratory patterns. They were then sent to an educator in Mexico who delivered them to schools in Mexico. Sometime this spring, we should receive symbolic monarchs coming back from their overwintering in Mexico.

Latest update from ALASKA!!
"I am currently working in Anchorage from midnight-6am. Folks out at the checkpoints report to us when mushers come in and then we get to update the website. Yes, I am loving every bit of this!"
Don’t forget that you and your students can now start tracking your mushers using the website and the GPS tracker. Email me if you have any trouble with that.
Today also starts our reading race! Each point that your student earns will move your grade level “down the trail” by 1 mile.
