Quote, buddies, scientific grossness

Remember that banana peel that we were observing? This is what it looks like now. We observed it carefully with our eyes and hands, and then described it ("black" "dirty" "yucky" "slimy" "soft"...). We drew in our science notebooks how it had changed. Gross as it looks, the children enjoyed it.
And on to more pleasant things: we had fun with our 4th grade buddies Friday afternoon. We played a sponge water game, the over/under relay, and ended our time with popsicles.


And we'll end with a quote:

"Lowercase t is basically a lucky number."
"Why?"
"Because it looks like a cross."
