Week 3 of Preschool is all about Science! Today, we started by decorating a craft stick and then added a magnet to the back (we put this away to use for later).  Next we learned how molecules are formed and then made a few of our own using marshmallows! For our story today we read "The Magic School Bus & the Science Fair Expedition". The girls really liked this one. We had some cheese and crackers and then went on a walk to look at bugs, plants, rocks, clouds, the sun, and the moon; we discussed different sciences and looked at "specimens" with our magnifying glasses. We came back inside for our lesson and discussed how to make a hypothesis. We did some experiments with our magnets and talked about how it is ok for a guess to be wrong because then we learn from the things we observe. The girls really liked being scientists and doing their own experiments.  We finished the school day by making pictures of atoms by gluing pom-pom protons, neutrons, and electrons on paper.  We discovered that the girls made Lithium by using 5 pom-pom protons in their nucleus'. We had a great day of learning.
