What an exciting week this has been for all of us. We love a week filled with science and experiments. Our first experiment was to track the water level of a cup filled with water that sits in the sun. As we predicted, the water has begun to evaporate and the water level is getting lower. We enjoyed our visit with Mrs. Paoloa's 3rd grade class. They invited us to watch their skit on the water cycle. It was awesome!!! This week we focused on seeds, plants and their parts. To support this we created sunflower craft and labeled plant parts. This leads us to our next experiment. We are waiting to see if our predictions are true about the stem. We placed blue dye into water and placed our white carnations into it. We can't wait to see what we will find Monday morning. Some of the kids think that the flowers will turn brown. Others believe that the flowers will stay white and others believe the flowers will turn blue. HHHMMMMMMM? Also this week, our sunflower seeds that we planted last week have begun to sprout!! Oh boy are the kids excited!!!! Tomorrow is the Autism 5k run/walk... rain or shine!!! I hope to see some familiar faces!! Enjoy the weekend!
