Science Experiments are back!


After a month of no science experiments during December because of our 'traveling' schedule, we were anxiousto get back into the swing of science. Gracie let us all participate in her experiment as we tested to see if we could get a chemical reaction in our mouths by chewing up mints and drinking 7-up at the same time. Thanks Gracie!

Brock made some "Elephant's toothpaste" as we watched him mix
several differnent ingredients together to make an explosive reaction. It was amazing, but no one really wanted to test it on their toothpaste!

Our After-Christmas Christmas Party


Because school was canceled the last day before Christmas break, we had our Christmas/New Years party on the 3rd when we came back! We played the Dreidel game from Israel, made a Kwanzaa mat from Africa, and broke a pinata from Mexico! What a great way to start off the new year! Welcome 2011!!!!!!!!!
