Our Earth: Week 3

Share

What an adventurous week we had last week!  Between the late-winter/early spring snow storm on Tuesday and our field trip to the Museum of Science on Thursday, we’ve all felt a little topsy turvy!  The Tugboats examined the tricky letter G last week, and learned about the two different sounds it sometimes makes.  They also looked closely at plants and noticed the important parts of plants, as well as the jobs each plant has.  To get a better sense of how plants send food and water from roots to leaves, we did a little experiment with some celery and colored water.  Check out our vibrant results in the photos below!  And of course, we explored all sorts of fun and exciting topics on our trip the Museum of Science!  The Tugboats spent time blowing bubbles, studying bones, comparing different scales and models, using air to move objects, and pretending to be astronauts.  We can’t wait for another trip to the Museum!
