We have been a very active class in the last couple of weeks! We went on our field trip to the Abbe Museum. Thank you to all those parents who could help! We ended up with a beautiful day in Bar Harbor and learned a lot in the museum. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take pictures in the upstairs part of the museum, but I do have pictures of us hard at work creating double curve designs in scratch art.
Last Friday, all students in our class performed a Reader's Theatre or plays that they had been working on all week. One group of students wrote their play themselves! All worked hard on teamwork, rehearsals, props, and more.
Friday afternoon, Mr. Mason came back to help us experiment with magnetism. We learned about how scientists prove invisible magnetic fields exist. We used bar magnets, "super" magnets, and even magnetic "slime"! We learned that it is very important for scientists to follow directions.
