Terry Fox Practice

Today, we ran the whole lap of the school field to practice for the Terry Fox run. Our school will be collecting money this week to help find a cure for cancer. 

Students set a running goal today based on their first attempt last week. We will revisit their goals tomorrow morning and adjust them if needed. Tonight, ask your child about their running goal. Some students will be pacing themselves better to go further. Others want to practice running more. Everyone needs to have a healthy breakfast to have the energy they need to exercise, play and learn!

Room 3 will be running for a cure on Thursday at 9:30. Parents are welcome to cheer the kids on or join us in the run. If you will be joining us, stop in at the office to sign in.

We decided we wanted to explore this further. One student was so helpful in bringing in 3 containers of slime for us to explore! Thank you to this student! Ms. McCullough decided to add in Oobleck to the experiment as well. We described both the solid and liquid characteristics of slime and oobleck then wrote a conclusion on whether it should be classified as a solid, liquid or both and explain why. Through some research online, Ms. McCullough found out this information online: What Is Oobleck? Oobleck isn’t a liquid or a solid, it’s a "non-Newtonian fluid". At times, it may seem like a solid or a liquid but it acts differently than a normal solid or liquid. Making oobleck is a great science experiment to show how changes in  pressure  can change the...
