Measuring Capacity
Measuing Volume in Cubic Units
Today in Math, we focused on measuing volume in cubic units. It can be a tricky topic, so I broke it down for everyone. Please allow your child to use this blog tonight if they need any help with their homework. 🙂

Pajama Class Party
Red Cross Visit – Thank You Mrs. Obi
Salt Crystals!
We continued our matter investigation after we found out that when salt was mixed with water, it became a solution. A solution is a kind of mixture, in which different kinds of matter are mixed completely with each other. We wanted to see if there was any way to separate the salt from the water again, without using heat. So, we added out salt water solution to a cup and placed a small piece of black construction paper inside of it and “voilà”…the water evaporates and the salt crystals form on the black paper! 🙂
Matter Matters
Which Solids Will Dissolve?In Science, we focused on dissolving matter…trying to figure out which solids will dissolve. We experimented with sand, salt, baking powder and soda and dirt. Be sure to ask your child about the experminent and about which ones dissolved and those that didn’t, what the scientific term for it is (suspension – when ingredients do not dissolve, but raise to the top).
