Eggs- March 22

This week we are so "Egg-cited." We will decide what comes from eggs, what doesn't.

We will use hard boiled eggs (for my sanity) to do some experiments. Such as floating/sinking, size, and weight against different items.

This was our Egg Graffiti wall:

We write down every letter of the alphabet and using books, the children try to find a theme word for each letter.

Water Cycle- March 15th

Topic: Water Cycle

I have tons of materials that I got from the California Water Department. It includes printed materials, posters and a DVD. The student's LOVED this DVD, they were actually glued very intently to it, amazing! This is the only video I have showed myself, but they have watched others from other staff members.

This paper turns into a booklet when you fold in half and cut on the dotted line.

Wind and Wind Power- March 8th

This week's topic is Wind and Wind Power. We used saltine crackers to make our own pinwheels. We made large pinwheels. We also made anamonmeters.

Storms- March 2

This week we learned about storms. The younger children completed a chart together about storms, the 2-5 grades did their own research.

Photos to follow.
