Recycling Bins

We had lots of empty glass candle jars in our class so today we took a trip to the glass recycling area at the Kingfisher to get rid of them.We learned how they are divided into clear,green and brown glass and that we should always be gentle when getting rid of them.






Our Fingerprints

 

 
Today we looked at our fingerprints with magnifying glasses and learned how the police use peoples' fingerprints to find criminals etc..!

 

Dancing Raisins

We put raisins in water and in 7 up.We saw that the raisins danced in the 7 up.The carbon dioxide made them dance!
