We need Pringles cans to make multiplication study gadgets!!!

Purple Horses Eat Oranges Constantly!

To understand the scientific method of Problem, Hypothesis, Experiment, Observations, and Conclusions we did a quick experiment. We put baking soda in water and added raisins.  Then we predicted (hypothesized) what the raisins would do when the "magic potion" (vinegar) was added.  We observed the raisins "DANCING" up and down!  We concluded that they did this because the soda and vinegar create bubbles, the bubbles lift the raisins up, when the bubbles pop, the raisins go back down again!!!   (Be patient while video loads, please!)

WELCOME!

Welcome to a new year of team teaching in 3rd Grade. Your child will have two teachers this year.  Mrs. Mack will teach reading and social studies and Mrs. Metivier will teach math and science. Both will teach language and writing to their homerooms.  We have had a good first week adjusting to the schedule and getting organized.
