Art- (Paper Cutting)
The kids folded paper then cut it to make snowflakes. They all came out different and it was a fun art project for the kids.
Science-(Microscope)
William Bentley was a scientist who used a microscope to look at snowflakes. We used a microscope to look at snowflakes and salt. The kids learned how to make there own slides.
Winter science- (co-op with friends)
We learned about winter science with our friends from our co-op. We talked about what the position of the sun is when its winter in our area. We pretend we were seals and performed an experiment about blubber. We also looked at snow under a microscope and listened to presentations about Antarctica, animals from Antarctica and seals. Lily and Aj gave their Presentation On Wilson Bentley. We also ate yummy winter themed snacks
