Wonderful Wednesday!!

We began the day having French with Mlle. Jessica.

We then began learning about money. We first had a discussion about why it is important to understand how to count money and about the coins themselves. We then explored the penny (which we do not use anymore, ask us why!), nickel, dime, and quarter. We practiced counting using these coins and completing our flip flap book related to these coins.

Next we had physical education with Mr. H.

We then continued with Math.

Following first recess and lunch, we did our second experiment for the science fair!!! We also related our experiment back to our UOI about Healthy Living. We noticed that the gummy worms are able to stretch much more when put into hot water or when warmed in hands than when put into ice-cold water. When thinking about our bodies, we decided that it is also important to warm up our bodies by stretching before performing any physical activity. When you warm up, you are literally warming up the temperature of both your body and your muscles. In addition, stretching provides increased: flexibility just like the gummy worms are more flexible when put into hot water or warmed in our hands!  

Watch us perform our experiment for the second time!






























Next, we had Music.

When we returned, we completed an activity for the last page of our report card. We ‘reflected’ upon the first term and wrote about what we learned, what we improved on, and what we had the most fun doing.

Following second recess and lunch, we read the last chapter of Charlotte’s Web. Wilbur was able to live for a long time and Charlotte’s children and grandchildren continued to form bonds with Wilbur and he was never without a friend!!!
