On Monday, your child came home with a library book for the first time. Please ensure that the book comes back in time to take out a new book each week. We have library every Monday morning.
Today we had fun being a scientist and making predictions. Our science experiment today was to observe what happens when we put an egg in a glass of water and an egg in a glass of vinegar. The students noticed that the egg in vinegar instantly formed bubbles on the outside of it's shell while the egg in water remained the same. We will be observing and writing about the transformations of these eggs over the next little while. It is a super fun experiment!
We have continued to learn about shapes both 2D and 3D. The jk students enjoyed exploring around the room looking for shapes to match their "Shape Search". The sk students went on a 3D scavenger hunt and then extended their learning by creating 3D shapes using marshmallows and toothpicks. Some of the jk students also were excited to create 3D shapes and created some great cubes! We also worked on making a shape pizza using 2D shapes and then counted how many shapes were used. We continue to explore numbers, talking about odd and even numbers as well as how to compose and decompose numbers to 10.
