Celebrating a friend's birthday!

In honor of Billy's birthday today, some friend's drew him pictures of wolves to celebrate his special day.

Testing the strength of our structures

One of our wonderings this year has been the strength of 

different materials and how things move. 

  Is it the wind? Or our blowers? A fan? The pendulum?

After constructing buildings a few week ago, we began to test 

those forces of motion to see what is the strongest.

 

               Some of our observations and predictions are listed below: 

                      Since Claire's is made out of blocks, it won't fall.

                         The pendulum is hard so it will knock down. 

                          When blocks get too high, they knock down. 

                                     Some of it will stay up. 

                                            It's wiggling.

                                           I made it shake.

                  We will test the pendulum on Monday! Stay tuned!

Dances around the world

The children put a multicultural puzzle together today. Then we looked at the traditional dances for each country on the iPad. The children were very intrigued with the different styles of clothing and dances. A few of the countries we looked at were Spain, Ghana, Russia, Japan, India, and Holland.
