Year 8 of #Texaswildlifeassociation training. We loved this training every year! @Bone_4th is always an amazing class buddy! @CFISDScience

Feeling loved and appreciated is such a great feeling! 2 separate students, for 2 completely different reasons, gave me such sweet and unexpected gifts. What a blessing!

Making our purple indicator from red cabbage for our acids and bases tests starting this week!

@CampbellsKiddos It was fun! The seniors loved their treat.

These are the exact same breads, baked on the same day, same oven, but one was baked in a metal pan and one was baked in a glass pan, any idea which is which?

Another amazing training with Texas Wildlife Association, but this time at John Paul Landing Environmental Education Center. We met other amazing teachers and had a great lunch! SO thankful for awesome friendships! @Bone_4th Thanks for always going with me!

Animal Cell Models today! I baked each student their own 6 inch cake and we discussed each part as we added it to our "cell".

6th grade is studying parallel circuits!

[Ginger Allen @MrsAllenFourth]

4th grade tested acids and bases with cabbage juice!

[Ginger Allen @MrsAllenFourth]

Trying new to me science experiments! Made the red cabbage indicator, added some lemon juice, and viola! It's pink and, therefore, an acid! Science is SO fun and cool!

@Bone_4th They are all over our courtyard as decoration!

[Ginger Allen @MrsAllenFourth]

In 4th grade, we looked at how thermal energy allows substances to spread faster and allows the tea to mix evenly. The ice-cold water didn't allow the substances to spread. Many adults were also excited to learn this today!

[Ginger Allen @MrsAllenFourth]

Got a library card and visited 2 libraries today!! This project is going to be a lot of fun!

[Ginger Allen @MrsAllenFourth]

We made ice cream today to study mixtures!! Fun was had by all and we learned how ice reacts with salt!

We enjoyed utilizing @audible_com to listen, read, and highlight our way through this little book over the past 2 days! She is a great listener, but sometimes she listened with her eyes closed.
