Little and big

We learned the vocabulary words little and big in class. We used the words to describe things in our classroom, and we labeled things in the classroom.  
One of our friends even had the words on his shirt!!! We had to show you since we are recognizing that clothes have letters and words printed on them!! It's so exciting to see them recognize the words!

Playdough quality testing

We started our Chemistry unit in science. We experimented with homemade playdough and commercially made playdough. The kids tried to make snakes, pancakes and balls with the two types of playdough.  They generated a list of good and poor qualities of playdough. (The poor quality homemade playdough was purposely poor quality!) They love creating and playing with the good playdough!  Here are some pictures.  The blue playdough was the poor quality and red was good.
