Five Senses and Other News

We did a fun writing activity using Pop Rocks candy to explore the five senses. Check out the kids' faces when the candy started popping in their mouths!





You can see their writing displayed on our hallway bulletin boards.

In science, we used our senses of sight and touch to learn about clay. The students had previously separated sand and silt. Now, they know that clay is an earth material even smaller than silt!



We currently have vials of clay in water and open bowls of clay. On Monday, we'll find out what happens when clay is left wet or dry.

Finally, I was treated to a special performance this week! Mrs. Dillahunt, the music teacher, invited the Kindergarten students and me to watch the First Graders perform a spooky story with instruments. I was able to snap a few pictures of the class with their instruments.
