Today's first carolling session went great! We will be having 2 more assemblies this week. Thursday at 1:00 pm and and Friday morning at 8:30 (our class is doing a dance at Friday's assembly as well). As the weather was a bit warmer today (not much but it's an improvement) the students were able to get outside for a shortened recess and a few minutes of running around outside at lunch time. Also in the mornings if it is above -20 the students will stay outside until 8:00 am, if there is an orange circle on the door then students can come on inside. It may cool down later this week again so we may not get out but please ensure that students have proper clothing to stay warm. I plan to have the students visit and dig through the lost and found tomorrow to make sure nothing belongs to them as the pile is growing and I believe that items unclaimed will be donated soon.
Just a reminder that Thursday is Red and Green day and Friday is Pajama Day.
In Science we did an experiment on how many drops of water could fill a penny before the surface tension would break- everyone had very low predictions. Most students observed that they could fit double digit drops on their penny and were very excited to see how big their miniscus bubble could get before overflowing. The average number of drops was around 30 but students found that the size of their drops and how high in the air they squeezed their eye dropper made an impact on how many drops could fit.
