Not a Stick

Earlier this year students enjoyed the story Not a Box.  They then created box projects.  This spring we read, Not A Stick. This book reminds us of how our imaginations can turn a stick into anything.  Here are some pictures of what the class came up with for their, Not a Stick ideas.

Wind socks

During our guided reading lessons, some students had the opportunity to read a book that explained how to make a wind sock.  After reading the book, Students were able to make their own wind sock. They also showed other students how to make one!

Weather

This quarter we enjoyed taking a look at weather.  While we have been recording our weather each day, we took a close look at some extreme weather.  Students wrote about weather that they liked.  They researched weather and created weather projects.  We turned our room into a weather museum and invited the school to come and take a look at what we learned.

 

 

Science Experiment

This quarter we did a lot with solids, liquids and gases.  Here were were conducting an experiment to show what would make an ice cube melt quicker, salt or sugar.  Ms. Philbrook helped us.
