Today in class, we discussed the Periodic Table of Elements as well as reviewed Renewable and Non-Renewable Resources. We then watched a video on Renewable and Non-renewable resources.  Students are to identify a NEED that currently exists in their home, their community or the world. They are to identify this and make a recommendation on how we can fix it. No matter how "outtttt there" it may seem to them; I want them to write it down without any feedback. Who knows, it may just well come true.

Can an Egg Bounce??????

Parents, as promised here are the instructions for performing the experiment for discussion for next week. . I would recommend using two eggs, just in case something happens to one. Take both eggs right out of the cartoon and place them in vinegar; pour just enough to cover the eggs. As young Scientist, students are to record their entire experiment from start to finish. Even the part about placing a white round object called an egg into a plastic clear cup with white distilled vinegar! Yes, that detailed!

Have fun and see you next week....

Assignment

In this Martha Speaks interactive story, learn how animal abilities have inspired inventions over the years. Birds inspired people to invent the first airplanes. A lizards sticky feet led to the invention of special glue for bandages. Chameleons helped give us the idea for camouflage clothing. When used as a part of Martha’s True Stories Buddies Program, buddy pairs engage with the interactive story, then talk and write about a new Animal Inspiration Invention.
Can you think of other animals that have inspired humans?
