"Today Dylan's Dad came and told us about electricity because he works for Avista." -Kylee
"Well, I learned that we should not mess around with the power lines because they have really powerful volts. If you do one of these things you could be dead. You couldn't even survive one of the accidents." -Kenan
"In PE, we did a bean bag game and I got out 5 times." -Ashlynn
"When Dylan's Dad came he said it's most important to look up and then you'll live. He means if you look down and you run into a power line you might not survive. If you look up, you can avoid power lines." -Mary
"In math, we were reviewing for our math test tomorrow. We worked on equivalent fractions, number lines, measurement, line plot graphs, and measuring angles." -Ella
