We had a great day yesterday on our field trip. \u00a0No rain was going to stop us from enjoying the day! \u00a0(and I knew the kids would enjoy the bus ride and being out in the rain \u00a0\ud83d\ude42 \u00a0) Thank you to all parent chaperones. \u00a0I hope you enjoyed the time with your child. \u00a0Now you can go back during the summer and enjoy some of the rides, the singing entertainment \ud83d\ude42 and some ice cream at a more leisurely pace. \u00a0Thank you again.<\/p>\n
I also wanted to mention our Science time last Tuesday. \u00a0Since we are talking about Living vs Non-Living Things, Mrs. Anderson (Jason’s mom) brought in 6 toads that reside in her window well. \u00a0The students began with going through our steps regarding Science Experiments\/Observations.<\/p>\n
ASK QUESTIONS- They drafted a list of 14 questions. \u00a0They had more questions but I wanted to get on with looking at the toads. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
MAKE AN HYPOTHESIS-They made their predictions with a buddy. \u00a0“I think…”<\/p>\n
CONDUCT OUR EXPERIMENT-We set up tables, magnifying glasses, and scales for weighing the toads. \u00a0We put on our lab coats too.<\/p>\n
MAKE OBSERVATIONS-This is where the excitement began! \u00a0I’ll share some pictures. \u00a0I didn’t get every student’s picture…sorry!<\/p>\n
DRAW CONCLUSIONS-Out of the 14 questions, they were able to answer 12 of the questions…and ALL BY OBSERVING! \u00a0I wanted them to realize what they can learn just by observing things.<\/p>\n
They had a wonderful time with the toads. \u00a0Thank you to Mrs. Anderson!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
