This week we have been studying the phases of matter and also been learning about atoms. We made atoms of different elements using a periodic table and some candy. We used peanut m and m s for the protons, plain m and m s for the neutrons, and cinnamon hearts for the electrons.
Yesterday we had Words Come Alive and we used our bodies to build atoms. The children really showed a good understanding of the atom when Karen asked about them.
This week they have also made great connections to the ELF lesson on air. The ELF curriculum has been a great supplement to our classroom science curriculum! Thanks to Missy, Michele and Tracy for all they do!
