week 3

Parents! First of all, I am so sorry. I have been posting weekly to my pages but turns out I had incorrectly added your emails and very few of you were actually getting my updates. Mistakes happen but I am so sorry for whatever the lack of communication made you feel.

I will likely re post the previous posts sometime next week so you can at least read them. I apologize in advance for the influx of emails from me.

In science this week we began understanding (or reviewing for some) what the three states of matter are! We made Oobleck to see a non Newtonian substance. This was helpful for most people to see how the states of matter can change. Next week we will look at different properties of matter. We have a huge focus right now on making detailed and descriptive observations.

What's the matter? New unit!

In science this week we continued to work on the scientific method! We are slowly starting our what's the matter unit all about matter and it's properties. I am so excited for this unit!
 
Next week students will be making Oobleck and starting to understand matter in more depth. 

Welcome back!
In science this week we went over what science means to all of us, safety contracts and have started learning about the scientific method! We will practice this a few more times before moving onto our first unit "what's the MATTER?" 
 
I know many of your students love science and I cannot wait to hopefully continue the love of science!
 
Thanks again! Please reach out with any questions.
