Diving into Science

Last Thursday and Friday were exciting days for our class!

We have started into our first science unit, Exploring Liquids. Check out the science page for some new links to sites all about liquids.

Students brainstormed about what they knew about liquids and as scientists, we started thinking of as many questions as we could.

Students then went on a hunt for liquids, looking in magazines. We figured out that a liquid is wet, flows and takes the shape of whatever contained it is poured into.

Friday found us engaged in a fabulous art project using watercolours and mixed paper. Students looked at different landscapes from Saskatchewan and painted the farm fields. They then created their own scarecrow, which tied into our poem and writing focus for the week. Check tomorrow for picture of the amazing artwork!
