For the past few weeks we have been reading and learning about animals in the Arctic. One of our new vocabulary words was BLUBBER (insert giggles!). Today, we did a little investigation using ice, water and Crisco (fat). The following pictures show the kiddos inserting their bare hands into the ice to compare the difference once their hands were covered in blubber. Since MY hands were covered, I was not able to grab pictures of the second part of our investigation, but I promise you, they were delighted!

In Math, we have been working on Making 10. What better way to do that than with marshmallows??
