SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS GONE CRAZY

What happens to a balloon attached to a straw and a long piece of yarn? What laws of motion are in effect?
What happens to food coloring when it is added to a jar of vegetable oil?  What is happening chemically?

What happens when salt, baking soda, canola oil, and sugar meet?

Washinton D.C. Presentations

On Tuesday, April 26, the students presented representations of their favorite places visited on our D.C. trip.  I instructed them to be creative...and they were!

Helana made a 3-D of her top favs..Mt. Vernon, Arlington Cemetery, & The Smithsonian's Natural History Museum

Ethan's lego replica of The Mall was interactive and informative!

Kristin went all out with pictures, ticket stubs, brochures, and she even wore her D.C. hat and t-shirt! So cute!

Luke fashioned his presentation after the design of a patchwork quilt. He illustrated his top places and presented his information like a professional!

Natalie created a scrapbook that featured everyone on the trip! We enjoyed revisiting each place as she presented her pictures.
