Another Incredible Week

We got Slimed on Tuesday! Our Science lab was so much fun! The students had to answer the question, Does slime have the properties of a solid or a liquid? Everyone started out with a hypothesis, I think.....because.

After creating their hypothesis we mixed up a batch of Slime. We tried 4 tests.

1. Set it on a paper plate.
2. Pour into cup.
3. Hold in your hand.
4. Roll in a ball.

After each test they had to decide whether the slime has the properties of a solid or a liquid. The students recorded their observations. So much fun!

In Math we skip counted by 2's, 3's, and 5's. We were introduced to tallies as a way of keeping track of groups of 5.

We are becoming familiar with coin equivalencies and using money as a model for counting by 5's and 10's. As a whole class we examined all the different ways to make 15 cents using, pennies, nickels, and dimes.

Did you know that Friday was the 31st day of school! Wow! Time flies when you are having fun!

We will have a Field Trip to Wolfson Hospital on Tuesday. 9-12:00. Please have your child wear his/her Chets Creek T-shirt and pack a bag lunch.
