Thursday, January 5th

We had another great day!

Off and on throughout the day, we inquired into the scientific ideas that change beliefs by exploring properties of light.  Students used polymer balls and a glass of water and monitored their changes periodically.  We will continue monitoring them tomorrow.  Check out some pictures and a short video clip below!!

We took a walk through the neighborhood today.  Students worked in teams to locate and take pictures of things that they believe represent the ideas and beliefs of our community.  We had some technical difficulties inserting the pictures into our chart, but they were able to infer the beliefs of our community based on the ideas in the pictures.  Ask your child to tell you more!

 Next Monday, we are thrilled to have Ms. Monroe joining our class!  Ms. Monroe is a para-professional in kindergarten at Westchester and will be completing her student teaching in our classroom.  She will be with us beginning Monday, through mid-April.  She brings many years of classroom experience with her, and we are so excited to have her with us!

Have a great night!!
