Week of April 28 - May 2

It's May already -- can you believe it?!

Here's what we did in the Science Lab this week:

  • Kindergarten: We learned about a ladybug's body parts, life cycle, and habitat. Each student took home a ladybug on Monday. You can observe it for a few days before releasing it outside.
  • 1st grade: We started our force, motion, and energy unit by learning about heat from friction.
  • 2nd grade: We worked hard to research a marine animal of our choosing a couple weeks ago, so today was our opportunity to share our knowledge with the rest of the class.
  • 3rd grade: This was the last day of our mini-unit over owl pellets. The students tried to identify the bones they found in their pellet, tried to reconstruct the skeleton of the prey with the bones, and were able to take home any skulls they excavated.
  • 4th grade: We experienced what it's like to be a drop of water by playing the water cycle game.
