Learning about Density
3 Things We Learned Today:
1. "In Math we did a problem with a bicycle and a tricycle and we had to figure out how much bikes did he see. The total is supposed to be 35 wheels on the bicycles and tricycles." C.S.
2. "In Reader's Workshop we are learning about what words have our special sound for this week. So we made a word wheel with letters so we can make words." L.M.
3. "In Science we were reasoning why the cooked egg floated and the raw egg sank. We learned that if it has more particles in it, it will sink. This is called density." J.V.
Reminders:
1. Please bring in empty plastic water bottles for our fieldtrip to Weaselhead. We will need them for water containers for a painting project.
2. Book orders due back no later than Friday, May 10th. You can place your order online or through a paper copy.

Reminders
HI Everyone,
I am away this afternoon so thought I'd write a quick blog post with some reminders as we are in a very busy time at school.
Some of you may be wondering if we had a new Science Home Journal question on Friday. We did not. We will have a new problem this week, so please ensure your child has returned their journal this week if it's still at home.
1. Weaselhead Field trip forms went home last week. Please return ASAP.
2. Scholastic book orders are due back no later than Friday, May 10th. This will be our last book order for the year.
3. No school Friday May 17th. This is a Non-Instructional Day.
4. I would still love a couple of adult volunteers to help out at Weaselhead on Wednesday, May 15th. (We do not need any more for the 22nd).
