January 16th we started learning about the letter o. We had fun making the letter and talking about it all week. We discuss vowels for two weeks so we will continue with o this week.
Last week we discussed the Artic tundra. This included plants, animals, and people of the Artic tundra. We read a book about the tundra and made igloos. We also made winter puzzles.
Later in the week, we completed an experiment on melting ice. We left 3 ice cubes in different containers, one with salt, one with sugar, and one with just ice. The children guessed what would happen to the ice then got to watch as the ice with salt quickly melted. This led to discussions about how people use salt to melt ice in colder parts of the USA for safer driving. The kids also made "ice" bracelets.
