Week of 3/18/13

On Tuesday we played a game that involves addition.

We did a jam with clapping, patting, and snapping.

On Wednesday we did a jam where we have to copy Mrs. Randall.

We had guidance on Wednesday. In guidance we learned about how to not let people change your mood. We also did little skits on how to get on the good side of someone who is annoying you.

We skyped a class in New Jersey who explained to us what a voki is. You can find out at www.voki.com.

We went to the Echo center on Thursday! We had to get ready. We are working on cursive while we wait for the bus.

Here we are at the Echo center. We learned that there are about 6.8 trillion gallons in lake Champlain.

We learned about the properties of solids, liquids, and gases.

Here we are, trying to figure out if hot or cold water is more dense than the other.

We found out that cold water is more dense.

Here, Jackson, JP, and Kieley are pretending to be water molecules.

We see what happens when we put sand in a beaker and swirl the beaker around. We also did this with rocks.

The sand lifted up a little bit and the rocks shifted around a little bit.

We also see what happens when we contaminate the water. Our group used "cow urine". The "cow urine" dissolved and made the water yellow.

We put fake animals in a model of lake Champlain. We learned about contaminating the water and how it affects the animals.

 

We learned about what would happen if there was a storm on contaminated water.

These ball bearings represent the atoms in metal.

We saw how big a moose skull is.

We dissected owl pellets.

Now that we finished our cool field trip, we are doing a self reflection.

We hope you have a great weekend! Lucas
