Ice and Snow

This week we explored the properties of those winter companions :ice and snow.  Check out the pictures to see what our scientists discovered.  We also looked at animals that live under the snow and above the snow.  The book Over and Under the Snow by Kate Mesner was a wonderful resource for our study.
Starting next week we will start a unit about nutrition.  If you have some old seed catalogs or magazines with food pictures please send them to school.

How can we make ice melt?  We used hot water, cold water and salt to see what was most effective.




We brought in some snow to see how long it would take to melt indoors.  We also noticed what the melted snow had in it at the end of the experiment.  Ask your child what was observed.

Our playground was transformed!
