Trying out "Tagxedo!"

We talked about the different names we have for our grandparents. Then we typed them into Tagxedo to create a fun word cloud! We will use this website to create word clouds of our grandparent writing pieces that we completed last week.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Love, Mrs. Crowley and her little leprechaun :)

SUPER SCIENCE :)

We started to learn about states of matter: GAS, LIQUID, and SOLID.

Today we did an experiment to see what can happen when you mix a solid and a liquid.

We used the following materials:

Vinegar
Baking Soda
Paper Cups
Paper Towel
Spoons

We PREDICTED that the baking soda would go up and down; it would explode; it would bubble up.

Next, we poured the vinegar into the baking soda and it bubbled up and OVERFLOWED!

In conclusion, when some solids and liquids mix they turn into a gas.

We liked this experiment!! Our favorite part was when it overflowed!!! :)

Rainforest Facts

In ELA we are reading Red Eyed Tree Frog. This non-fiction story gives great information and photos about the rainforest. Check out what we learned...







Red eyed tree frogs sleep during the day.

A katydid is an insect that lives in the rainforest.

An iguana is a lizard.

Red eyed tree frogs eat moths.

The weather in the rainforest is hot and rainy which makes it steamy.

The trees can be 200 ft. tall.

A boa is a snake that likes to eat frogs.

Some animals stay up in the trees all the time.

Red eyed tree frogs can jump very far.
