MARCH 26
HISTORY - learned about the young Alexander the Great. They got into this, of course and really liked the story of the Gordian Knot. They were impressed that Alexander was so clever. And they really wanted to know how the knot got to be so big and strong.
SCIENCE - Polar habitat was good, they were surprised that polar bears and penguins don't live at the same pole. We did an experiment with blubber (Crisco) and all of my ice cubes in the kitchen sink and they thought this was the greatest thing. They thought you should be able to buy blubber to wear when you're in the cold weather. Except that is felt gross outside of the plastic bag.
Grasslands Habitat was interesting, too. They got into the predator/grazer relationship. We planted some more grass in the pots to see how long it takes to grow ( I'll water is this time!) and they spent alot of time on the coloring pages.
I forgot to print the assessments for these but I looked at them tonight and they would have gotten them all right today:)
I'm making out hotel reservations tonight. yeah!
