Water drops on a penny!?

We had another awesome activity in science this week. As we looked at the Nature of Science and the scientific process, we learned that it all begins with a question! So we asked ourselves…. “How many drops of water will fit on a penny?” Were you surprised in our discovery? What do scientist do after they experiment?

Jelly Bean Scientist

Today was so much fun. We have learned so much in two weeks. I hope that you had fun as we learned about “properties” and “classification.” I cannot think of a better way to learn about these things than classifying and eating jelly beans! You all did a super job! I will be working on adding a slide show to our website soon. Now I want to ask you the same question that I did today. How do your senses help you classify objects in science? What do you think?
