What is the
Matter Second Grade?
On Friday, Our Mustang Second
Graders had a fun day of science as they experimented with various
forms of matter. In the first classroom they did experiments
with Mrs. Church as they made predictions and explored which objects
would sink or float in water and then explained why some objects
floated while others didn't.

As we traveled down the hallway
to Mrs. Powell's Second Grade classroom, the aroma of pancakes
caught our attention. In this classroom, the children learned about
matter changing from a liquid to a solid.

In Mrs. Baker's Second Grade
classroom, we caught our Mustangs enjoying the antics of dancing
raisins as they explored the properties of gas and the reaction that
bubbles would have on raisins dropped in various liquids. The
children really enjoyed their morning learning about Matter.
Congratulations to our 2010
Battle of the Books Team
We Are Proud of You!

First Grade Celebrates Warmer Weather With Kite
Day
Breezes blew the wispy hair of our first grade
as they took their kites to the field for an
afternoon of fun in the sun. The warm spring air
put a lightness in everyone's step as they
enjoyed the warm Friday afternoon with their
classmates and family volunteers.
