Tremendous Tuesday!

We began the day have French with Mlle. Jessica.

We then began learning about Canadian coins. We cut out a money flip flap book to help us better understand Canadian coins.

Next, we had physical education with Mr. H.

When we returned, we continued with our money flip flap books.

After recess and lunch, we began our science fair experiment! Since we are now scientist, we had a conversation of what it means to be scientist and how to go about performing an experiment following the scientific method. We were then introduced to our topic, which involved temperature. We researched as a class how temperature effects various objects and materials and what happens when an object becomes cold and hot. We will be exploring temperature using gummy worms!!

 We used our research to come up with our question:

How does temperature effect how much a gummy worm can stretch?

Based on our question we each come up with our own hypothesis.

After, we did our first science experiment! We made predictions about how much we would be able to stretch each gummy worm and then we checked to see if we were right. We stretched a gummy worm in room temperature, cold ice water, hot water, and warmed in hands. We then wrote our observations and results on a recording chart.

 

Following second recess and lunch, we worked on our lesson 10 spelling words and then finished our letters to a veteran.
