Star of the week - Parker

 We had a lot of fun learning more about our friend. Way to go, Parker!

Apple crisp and apple taste test

We had so much fun preparing and eating our apple crisp. Thank you to Aiden's mom for helping us out! Many children commented on how delicious it was. We also enjoyed our taste test experiment. We tried red, yellow, and green apples and recorded the data.

Apple Week!

 Today we kicked off our apple unit!

We went out into our courtyard to look at the apple trees.  While we were there, everyone picked a nice, fresh apple to eat. One student commented that it was the best apple they had ever tasted. Back inside, we checked our apple cores for the five seed pockets. Many students found all five seeds. Finally, we completed an experiment to discover if an apple would sink or float.  We learned that apples float because they are 25% air!

More fun tomorrow...

Terry Fox run

 It was a beautiful day on Thursday for the Terry Fox Run.
