Our class has been immersed in poetry. We have been reading, writing and tweeting poetry!  As part of our work in learning to read and write poetry we have been enjoying the poetry lessons on The Poem Farm.   We were so excited when Amy Ludwig VanDerwater, author and poet of the Poem Farm, replied to our tweets! You can follow our poetry journey on twitter below.

As a culminating learning experience for our Physical Science unit we made (and enjoyed) ROOT BEER FLOATS.  We began the lesson by discussing the various properties of the root beer, it's container, the ice cream and it's container. Once the class had shared most of the properties we began to think about the states of matter. Finally, we made predictions about the changes they expected as the root beer was poured over the ice cream. We hope you will watch and listen to our conversation and share your comments below.
