Week 15

Highlights:

    Super Finn stuffy

  • We finished up our shape cities! Here are a few more examples:

  • We also did a super cool science experiment and learned about the scientific process. The question we investigated was: "What is black made of?"
    • We predicted that all of the colors of the rainbow, mixed together, make black.
    • Then, we took a black marker and used it to put a dot on a coffee filter paper. 

    • Afterwards, we used droppers to add water on top of the black dot.
    • The water made the black dot separate into other colors! 
    • Ask us what colors we discovered!
