The sun is the best star ever!! We had a chance to learn all kinds of cool things about the sun!
The sun has spots on it and there are layers of the sun! We watched a great NOVA video about the sun and its amazing powers. We learned about the powers of CME's (Corona Mass Ejections) and how those ejections can interfere with our own magnetic field. We had fun painting our own sun and had fun looking at real time photos of the sun from space. We also had fun learning more about polygons. We had fun grouping different polygons by shape, numbers of sides, and size. Go Polygons!! This week we had more fun with squishy circuits with the 4th and 5th graders in Mrs. Zunnio's class. We had a chance to learn about series and parallel circuits. We also learned more about insulating play dough and how it helps stop electricity from flowing through.
We had so much fun with polygons and learning all about the different kinds and the names for them. We watched a Brain Pop Jr. and had fun looking at different examples. |
