We have had a successful first few weeks of school. Students have learned how to think like scientists by observing and classifying a variety of candy using their senses and scientific tools.
Afterwards, students explored the parts of a cell by making their own cell models. The fourth grade class made an edible cell using gelatin and a variety of candies. Yum!
We are currently exploring the exciting world of plants! Students have been conducting experiments to observe how seeds grow and to observe transpiration in plants. We have also been studying plant parts and their functions. The fourth grade class is preparing for a test over the plant unit on Tuesday, September 13.
Just wait and see what exciting activities are ahead when we explore the fascinating world of animals!
