Thanksgiving

We were exploring various forms of energy the week before out fall break. Everyone brought in their boxes, aluminum and clear wrap and we created individual solar ovens. Too bad we had the worst gloomy and cloudy weather. Still that did not stop us from enjoying some smores. We concluded that chocolate will melt even in partly sunny/cloudy weather but marshmallows will need a lot more Sun heat. Either a way, we all enjoyed our activity and took out oven home.

Healthy Holiday Snacks

Very productive week. For science we had a presentation called Body Safari. It tied in perfectly with our holiday snack, red green and white.
Kids came up with possible fruits and vegetables that were red green or white.
I set up my reading table as a  buffet lined with healthy choices. I handed them each stirrers and let them get a hand full serving...just as we learned yesterday.
