January 12th - January 16th

We have been working hard this week in grade 2!  We worked on writing paragraphs by sorting sentences about a certain topic.  Everyone who was here this week has completed an excellent paragraph about our PWIM picture. 

On Wednesday we experimented mixing root beer and ice cream together.  We could see all states of matter with this experiment.  Ask your child what the liquid, solid and gas were! We enjoyed drinking this yummy experiment after!

On Thursday we took our frozen water balloons out of the freezer and made snowmen.  As the day went on we recorded what was happening.  It was exciting to see the snowman change shape as the day went on. At the end of the day we put our snowmen in a pot and watched what happened!
