Science in Action

Below are a few shots of our simple but really interesting science investigation we did this week. We got 4 plates and put 1/4 cup of sugar, salt, and sand, on the plates then left one plate empty as the control. The next morning, the ants covered the sugar but none where to be seen on the control plate, salt, or sand! We used our observations and evidence to infer that the ants prefer sugar! We thought we saw lots of dead ants but surprisingly, this afternoon, almost all of the ants were gone! What could we infer now? Do we need more evidence before making an inference? I, for one, do not know why the ants were gone, it's a science mystery just waiting to be solved! What will you investigate this weekend??? I sure do love all my little budding scientists :o)

Look at all those ants on the sugar!

A Message From Amos

Amos is ready to come meet the class!!! He wants to make sure though, before he comes, that his new friends won't be too loud or off task when they should be working. He wanted me to tell you that he really loves when his friends are focusing, learning, and having fun without getting out of control. He said that in the past, when his friends acted "crazy", it really stressed him out and made him sad. Since the first day of school Amos has wanted to meet his new friends, but I told him that I'd wait and make sure they were the kind of friends he wants to be around 8 hours a day. After 9 days, we are getting really close and just need to work a little more on staying on task during partner and small group work. He'd like to come next week, so please help him by concentrating on your tasks during independent work time. In the meantime, he'll "keep spinning his wheels" and hoping to meet the class soon!!
