PLAYGROUNDS, SCIENTISTS, AND SECRET READERS

10/19/2017

 
Today was just the best.  We had a blast on the middle school playground this morning celebrating our classroom party.  We love spending time outside with friends and what better way than exploring a new and different playground!

Then we heard from our second scientist of the week...SLOAN!  She wanted to know how many helium balloons it would take to lift up a person (specifically Sloan).  Guessing that would be a lot, she settled on figuring out how many for a Barbie.  We made our hypotheses and our guesses ranged from 1 to 100.  Turns out about 13 balloons will make Barbie stay suspended in the air!  Next week we look forward to turning this into a math problem to hypothetically make Sloan fly!

We also wrapped up Siri's science experiment about teeth.  Ironically she lost a tooth today!  Take a look and just guess which tooth spent a week in water and which tooth spent a week in soda!?  Pretty gross.  We took the opportunity to discuss enjoying things like soda and candy in moderation...while of course continuing to brush your teeth daily!

And last but not least...we heard from a secret reader.  Mr. Kevin, Beck's dad.  He read a fabulous book, Castaway Cats.  It was a story of disaster, struggle, and finally friendship.  We experience many of the same friendship struggles in our classroom so we could definitely relate.  Though we might not have cat fights, we certainly have to work out our differences with friends.  We're getting really good at it!  Thanks for the great read!!  We love surprise stories from loved ones!
