Science Experiments









We are studying states of matter in science. Today we made some tricky substances that showed properties of both solids and liquids. The recipes went home today so feel free to experiment on your own too. I'm warning you - it can get messy but it's also endless hours of fun!

Saint Patrick's Day Shenanigans


We built a leprechaun trap during choice time after a few sightings of the little trickster and a flurry of leprechaun dust found in the first grade wing.

The Wedding


Choice time was a very exciting time for those in the stuffed animal center. Instead of playing school with the little critters, they decided it was time for Theodore Bear (aka Teddy or Big Bear)and Goldie the golden retriever to wed. They used paper, tissues, tape and Jack's jacket to dress the animals and then we ended the ceremony with some formal wedding shots. They plan to hold the reception during next Thursday's choice time.
