Students during Mrs. Shields' math lesson today were taking turns "teaching" the class how to use place value to subtract 3-digit numbers. They rocked it!
Students in Mrs. Brimm's class had a great day at Greenbush. The ladies at Greenbush said these kids had the best manners, always saying please and thank you!
Mrs. Brimm's class enjoyed their day at Greenbush. These students encouraged and helped each other all day! They are an awesome bunch!
In science we are learning about the states of matter. We experimented to see if shaving cream is a solid, liquid or gas. We also experimented to see what liquid took tarnish off of a penny.
After learning about matter, students in Mrs. Brimm's class conducted an experiment and were "alchemist" to determine which liquid turned a dull penny shiny. They were fascinated by the results!
Learning about mixtures and solutions in science.
