Scientist of the Week

Sydney is our Scientist of the Week!

Our experiment was called Dancing Ice for "I" Week. The materials included vegetable oil, a glass jar and an ice cube.

We submerged the ice cube in the oil. The ice began to dance around as it melted!

Way to go, Sydney!

Today we had two special Mystery Readers, mom and big sister. They read the books, A Birthday for Bear and The Great Pig Escape. What a way to celebrate a half birthday! Thank you for reading!

Scientist of the Week

Matthew is our Scientist of the Week! He demonstrated an experiment called Sticky Penny.

In this experiment, we used a penny, an eyedropper and some water to show how water collects on the surface of the coin. We predicted how many drops of water we could put onto the penny without the water overflowing.

Most of us predicted 5-10 drops. But we reached 21 drops before the water overflowed! We learned about molecules, cohesion and surface tension.

Way to go, Matthew!

Mystery Reader

Today we had a Mystery Reader come to read some dinosaur books.  She read Curious George and the Dinosaur Discovery and Danny and the Dinosaur.  Thank you so much for reading to us!

Amazing Balloon

Adair is our Scientist of the Week! 

She showed us how to poke a wooden skewer through a blown-up balloon without making it pop.

We used Petroleum Jelly on the tip of the skewer. This allowed the skewer to poke all the way through the balloon without popping it.

Way to go, Adair!
