Mixing Things

This past week and this coming week we are doing a mini unit about States of Matter in Science class. This is where the pudding and jello snacks that you may have heard about fit in. We have done experiments about mixing things, and things that float. So far we have had a lot of fun learning through discovery. I wonder what else this week will hold?

This is the Ooblek that we made after reading Bartholomew and the Oobleck by Dr. Seuss. 

Here we mixed a solid and a liquid and it became pudding. 

Here we mixed a solid and a liquid, again but got jello. 

Finally, a couple of items that took the sink or float test. 

Grade 3s are working on finishing up a math unit about Measurement. This past week they have practised measuring the perimeter of various things. Next we will work on mass. 

Grade 2s are working on 2D and 3D shapes and objects. Here is one of our creations. 

Have a great week!
