This week as well as last week and possibly next few weeks we have been looking into the weather, (Hero's choice) and on Monday we read about Noah's ark, so we followed it up with cooking Rainbow cookies and meringues for clouds, they were so yummy and very colorful (No yellow as Ninja sneezed on the mixture while colouring the yellow dough).
Last week we went to the Library and grabbed some books about Weather and other things that interested us. We also as made a weather wheel and other worksheets, to help us understand the weather.
Hero is recording the weather for the day each Monday (which includes sunrise and sunset) and doing other science experiments including how long does it take water to turn to ice and ice to turn to water, 6 hours and 4 hours. He guessed they would be the same!
So as we continue this week, we will continue to update.

Mummy!
PS. Oh yeah Princess is trying to count to 30, at least she doesn't do 2010, like her big brother Hero use to do! :) 29 2010 2011 2012 no no it is 29, 30, 31 it is so cute to remember back to those things.. :)
PPS. We also learnt about water cycles and that water is old, check this out...
Run and get a glass of water and put it on the table next to you. Take a good long
look at the water. Now -- can you guess how old it is?
| The water in your glass may have fallen from the sky as rain just last week, but the water itself has been around pretty much as long as the earth has! When the first fish crawled out of the ocean onto the land, your glass of water was part of that ocean. When the Brontosaurus walked through lakes feeding on plants, your glass of water was part of those lakes. When kings and princesses, knights and squires took a drink from their wells, your glass of water was part of those wells. taken from http://www.kidzone.ws/water/ |
