Marble Art Hearts

Thank you to the parents who helped this week.  We made beautiful hearts with marbles, paint and glitter!  Parents can expect to see the hearts come home in their child's backpack, next week, after they have had time to dry on the drying rack.

Growing Crystals

We have been growing crystals for the past couple of days.  We dissolved Borax in hot water until the solution was saturated.  We inserted a heart shaped pipe cleaner and then patiently waited.  Pre K A needed to be extra patient, as no results were very visible the first day.  Pre K B could see crystals by the same afternoon.  One of the students shared some descriptive vocabulary about the result with her friends.  The crystals were "glittery" and "sparkly".  This science activity was an opportunity to practice social skills....being patient.  Language skills were used too, as lots of language was used by the children to discuss the activity.
