Last week, we a ”egg”cellent time studying eggs. We investigated the life cycles of the frog, butterfly, and chiken, completed several “egg”speriments, and completed our egg projects. Please stop by and view the projects right outside our classroom. A special thanks to Mrs. Cianfarano for helping with our sculptures.
Why won't my egg spin? It's Raw!
Does the blue one spin because it is heavier?
How do I get this egg in the bottle?
Put a match in the bottom, seal the egg in the top, as the bottle takes in air, the egg sucks right in!
How do you make a raw egg float?
Add lots of salt! Rotten eggs float without salt.

Last week our class visited the Dhillon’s dental office and we had a fabulous time. Their favorite part was chewing a pink tablet that showed the children where they had brushed well and needed to brush more. They also loves the motorized chair and trying on the mask and gloves. We learned lots of great information and it was a fabulous way to kick off our study of keeping our bodies healthy! Thank you to the Dhillon’s and their staff for a fabulous trip!
We look great in our "fancy" clothes!

We have had another exciting week in kindergarten. The children loved watching the snow fall last Tuesday. It led to two impromptu lessons. The first was discovering the answer to the question, “Why isn’t it sticking?” After a little research, we discovered it just wasn’t cold enough. The second lesson led us on a 5 senses walk. The children investigated the snow using their 5 senses, and then came inside to write about what they saw, heard, smelled, touched, and tasted. Tasting the snow was the most fun!
On Thursday, Mr. Clint came to tell us a little more about himself, and to read us the book, Duck for President. The children did a great job enhancing their questioning skills and being a good audience. They loved the book!
We loved our 5 senses walk in the snow!

After returning from Christmas break, the children packed their bags, got their passports in order, and headed south to a land of rainforest, plains, desert, and ice. Yes, we went to South America. We visited the Amazon Rain Forest, Atacama Desert, Andes Mountains, and Machu Picchu. Climbing Machu Picchu was hard work, but working as a relay team we made it to the top! We were fascinated by the animals we saw along the way. However, the weather puzzled us for a moment. How could the northern part of the continent be so hot, while the southern portion is so cold? BRRR! It wasn’t long before we discovered the answer and bundled up even more to head farther south. See you at our next stop! Can you guess where we are headed?
This needs more SUGAR!YUCK!Are you ready for some FUTBOL?We call this soccer in the U.S.A.
