Mrs. Ponton's 7th graders learning about Natural Selection by doing "Battle of the Beaks". Natural selection is the "mechanism" that causes evolution to occur. Charles Darwin is a Naturalist who realized this was happening on the Galapagos Islands while he was studying the Galapagos Tortoises and Finches on the islands.

Congratulations Ms. Teri Boudreau and the Donovan Elementary Students!
Ms. Boudreau was awarded $500 from the Eastern Illini Electric Coop for her grant request for a Teach the Way They Learn Project!
Ms. Boudreau plans to use the grant dollars to create a store within her classroom that would incorporate the students as both workers and customers.
There would be advertising posters, weekly sales, a cash register, an account ledger to track both spending for the store and what the customer purchases.
Thank you Eastern Illini Electric Cooperative and Ms. Boudreau!
