Dec. 1

Today we did knee-to-knee sharing in journals. We focused on finding our most interesting sentences in our writing. In gym we kept practicing our passing and dribbling skills for basketball. We played a 3-on-3 passing game.  In math we learned about the new pattern centres that we will be working on for the next few weeks. We will be starting the centres tomorrow after recess.

We also wrote the observations and "I wonder" questions about the magic milk experiment we did last week. Some of the questions we came up with were:
- Why didn't the soap bubble?
- Why didn't the milk turn brown when the colours mixed?
- What would happen if we added more soap?
- How did the soap make the colours spin around?
- What if you added baking soda?
- What would happen if we put it in the microwave?
- What would happen if we added soda pop?
- What if we used shampoo instead of dish soap?

Some of us might want to do some extra research at home to find answers to these questions!

Tomorrow our helper is: Isabel
