This week, two of our students brought in some chunks of ice for an experiment we talked about doing. The children were curious about how ice melted and how salt melted it..so together we co-planned an experiment to see which type of salt would melt the ice the fastest...OR if no salt at all would effect how fast the ice melted. First, we made a prediction and used our SmartBoard to record it:
Then, we made signs for our buckets and put out a bowl of the salt to touch:
It turned out that the Outside Salt melted the ice the fastest!!
We also made Stained glass inspired tissue paper mittens for our window:
After watching a few YouTube videos on making letters with Playdough, we tried to make some of our own:
