Amazing Volcanoes!

To celebrate the fact that every student was present last week and conquered the FCAT, I decided it would be just plain FUN to create our own volcanoes. Now, these aren't just an ordinary volcanoes. They are from different lands around our universe.

Friends worked in groups and chose 3 different colors of play dough, created their volcano and anything they wanted surrounding it. They then gave their land a name and created a sign. Finally, I allowed them to choose what color lava they wanted flowing out of their volcano.

We simply used baking soda, a little dish soap (for extra foamy lava), and food coloring. We mixed the basic colors to get colors like purple and orange! My friends had a BLAST (literally) and really showed their teamwork and creativity. Check it out!

MOSH!

We had such a blast at the MOSH today! We saw an awesome movie in the Planetarium. We learned what Astronauts' bodies go through in outer space. I tried my best to get a picture of the Astronaut. (You'll see it in the slideshow below). Then we went through a great deal of our Social Studies curriculum at the Flags over Florida program. Many friends answered questions and did a great job! Some even had the chance to participate! We ended our field trip with the Science production about Energy. We learned how energy transfers from one form to another.

Check out the video posted below the slideshow to see how electricity traveled through a circle of friends. :D
