We studied the Earth this week and learned about Earth Day. We talked about the different layers of the Earth and how the Earth is mainly covered in water. We decided to create a globe of our Earth. First we started by cutting strips of newspaper. Then we messily applied them to a balloon and let it dry overnight. Today, we started painting our globe. We also went to the collaboratory where some students built towers to space with the large blue blocks. When we went outside, we studied the rocks and wondered what layer of the Earth they were from and decided to color them brighter colors. Ask your child what they learned about the Earth this week.
