Using Our Senses and Science Tools

This week we have been studying about the various science tools that we will be using this year in science. We conducted Investigation Stations today using our science tools and 4 of our senses. We discussed how it was not safe to use the sense of taste in science when we do not know the substances we are working with! The kids were given 2 similar substances and had to use the senses of touching, smelling, hearing, and seeing to determine if the substances were the same or different. They learned that the safe way to smell in science is to waft the smell towards their noses. There was some terrific discussion among the groups trying to explain to their other members what they discovered! Check out the slides for each class to see the budding scientists in action!

Dinosaur Day and Carnival!!

Saying that today was exciting would be a major understatement! I would not be surprised if your children came home and fell asleep right away! The carnival this morning was a blast and the kids even got to see me making a fool of myself with my face in a pie! Hope you enjoy the photos.
