This was Peanut’s science lesson today.
Schoolwork
Janie had a science assignment this week. She had to build a cart that would go down a ramp and travel 3 feet.
She also had to present it to her class over Zoom.
Here was our test run the night before.
Peanut also did some work in class today.
Disc Shooter
We got another Kiwi kit in the mail and they made disc shooters today!
Ublek
This last always been a fun activity to do as a kid. It’s a mixture of cornstarch and water. If it’s moving, it is a solid state but once you let it rest, it “melts” into a liquid.
Pumpkin Project Day 16
We have leaves now! It’s not quite a vine yet but we are so happy it survived our week-long absence.
Scavenger Hunt
Peanut has been learning about broad leaves and coniferous leaves in science. Today, one of his assignments was to go on a scavenger hunt.
We found all the things on the list and brought home a broad leaf!
Pumpkin Project Day 7
We have a sprout!!! Yaaaaaaay!
Pumpkin Project Day 5
It’s been five days and our seed has roots now! How exciting!
Pumpkin Project Day 1
Peanut learned about the Pumpkin Life Cycle this week and we started a seed in a bag today! We hope it sprouts!
Homemade Ice Cream
In Science class today, Janie learned how to make homemade ice cream using two ziploc bags. We gave it a try and it totally worked! Here’s the recipe:
