4A was successful as well with their penguin blubber. Great job 4A!
After learning about penguins this week, 4C tried to create their own penguins' blubber to keep them warm in the cold Antarctica. Their challenge was to insulate a cup of water so that it would not freeze as quickly when placed in the freezer. They all succeeded!

VETERANS DAY 2020
Somonauk Community Unit School District #432 would like to honor our United States Veterans during the week of Veterans Day. While our annual school assembly cannot take place in person this year, we would still like to acknowledge our local veterans who selflessly served our country. Please help us pay tribute to them in a virtual ceremony by sending a digital photo or two, possibly “then” and “now”, of a veteran that you know, as well as branch served, time period, and any special recognition (i.e., Lt. John Patrick, Army, 1965-1969, 2 Bronze Stars)
Somonauk School District values the service of our Veterans, we look forward to honoring them and their families this year. Please send the pictures to nesse@somonauk.net by November 2, 2020, in order to be included in the presentation.
JRW's Most Valuable Principal.....goes to.... Mrs Pruski!
