4th graders- Solid Earth: We will finish up our scratch test with minerals and identify them using the minerals property table and the information we have gained from the scratch test. We will then use vinegar to test if a particular mineral is found in several different rocks
5th graders- Water Planet: We are wrapping up our lesson about the solar system and starting a new lesson about evaporation. Students will learn what evaporation is and will get the opportunity to see it first hand in our own evaporation experiment.
Don't forget!
Coastal Cleanup Day is Saturday September 25, 2010
This is a great yearly event that helps keep our beautiful beaches clean and prevents pollution from entering our waters and hurting marine life and our marine ecosystem.
Events will be taking place all over the bay area.
