Today in Science

Today we learned about weight on the planets. We would be different weights because of gravity.  Today we saved words when we were doctors.  We cut up sentences and put commas in them to make them better.  We played a game about measuring.  It was fun doing it.

Today was a Fun Day

We learned if we have more details to do we can do spider legs.  You write more on another piece of paper, cut it out, and then you tape it on and put an arrow to where it should be.  Tomorrow is  Angel's last day at our school.  Saturday he's moving to Mexico, and we will miss him.

We had Fun in Science

In Science we were in groups.  We were seeing who could get the marble in the cup three times in a row.  We used white tracks, and the marble had to go across the room, and land in the cup.  The tracks were both close to being the same.
