Ended our day using root beer floats to talk about solids, liquids and gases! What a yummy way to end the day!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Thank you @sutton_c for joining us as we designed, built and tested our boats! It was a fun morning filled with learning and lots of smiles!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Some of our boats held 120 gems! Loved seeing the ideas kids had and hearing them talk about why they built their boats a certain way!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Fun science filled day! We started the day by working in pairs to design and build a boat. We then tested how many gems they held!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Working on subtraction with muffins today! All the kids agreed working with muffins makes them hungry (even if they are paper muffins)!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Today we got to be big buddies and share our stories with our little buddies!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Amazed at how our potatoes are doing! 2 weekends ago they were dumped over & broken. Today they are standing tall! The kids are so excited!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Using games to work on subtraction from 20!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Experimenting with liquids today and seeing what happens when we mix milk, vinegar, oil and soap!

#storyworkshop creating with @Mrs_SMace ! Can't wait to try this out next week :)

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

@Gurjot_Dohnut I agree! It is fun for any age and it was great to see the different things they collected. I love how they are all unique!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

@Gurjot_Dohnut We went on a nature walk one morning and the students collected things they found in nature around the school!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

@Gurjot_Dohnut Thank you! They did a great job! Once they collected everything, it took about 30-40 minutes! They had lots of fun!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Last weeks building challenge: create a bridge that would hold the cow! Led to a great talk about perseverance!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

Kids had so much fun collecting and making their nature name art!

[Mrs. Mace's Class @MrsMace_S]

This weeks challenge was to design a house!! Awesome to see what they built but even better to hear their thinking!
