Check this out!








We have had a great past 2 weeks. The children really enjoyed the snow that we had all day last Monday (Be sure to check out the photos!). We also had a wonderful lesson with our Media Specialist, Mrs. Massey, about states of matter. In this lesson the students were able to watch a snowman form from a liquid, to a solid, and back to a liquid. We "built" the snowman in our classroom and the students predicted how long it would take for "Bob" to turn into a liquid. The predictions where anywhere from a few minutes to 11 days!!! We made him at 9:00 this morning and as of now 2:40 pm "Bob" has lost his head and is barely hanging on, but has not completely melted yet! Below you will find a picture of "Bob" right after he was made. Have a wonderful weekend!
"Bob" The Snowman!
THIS JUST IN...Bob completely melted at 11:00pm. He lasted 14 hours!!! Until next time Bob! :-)
