Hello Families,

Today we had a Mad Scientist visit our classroom!  Billy’s mom stopped by to give our kindergartenscientists a demonstration on “density.”  You might have seen the Density Tower she made for our Science Fair Boot Camp.  It was even more amazing to watch her actually make it.  She carefully constructed a nine-layer density tower, using a variety of household items.    Ask your child, what was at the bottom of the Density Tower?  What were some of the liquids that Billy’s mom used?  What were some of the solids that she dropped in the tower?  Mrs. Schook did an incredible job and we all learned something new!  Take a look!

Thanks Mrs. Schook!
