Enjoying the Elements - A link to Seaburyjourney.org

Enjoying the Elements, an article written about some special guests who came to the Navigators' Distance Learning Chemistry Classroom -  Mrs. Towne's kitchen!

Watching faces pop up on a computer screen is not the same as seeing kids walk

through the classroom door, but you wouldn’t know it by the cheerful sound of

teacher Sheri Towne’s voice as she welcomed 20 or so Seabury students to a very special Zoom meeting Monday morning.

“Hi Caleb. Hi Lizzie. There’s Gabrielle. I see Jai and Te. Wow! So many people on

our screen,” Sheri said.

The students – from Sheri’s first-grade class and Katy Moon’s second-grade class – gathered online to meet two high school seniors from Northeast Tacoma who

published a charming children’s book about an unlikely topic – chemistry.

Anna Gerald, the writer, and Galina Wynkoop, the illustrator, are best friends who

attend the Science and Math Institute (SAMi) run by the Tacoma Public Schools.
