Short Week

Well it's been a short week. We didn't have students on Monday because of Labor Day and next week will be another short week because of Parent-Teacher Conferences. The first and second graders got to do some experimentation. They were looking for their taste buds and filling out a tongue map to show where they had found them. We used salt in water for the salty taste. Juice was used for the sweet taste. Lemon juice made a great sour taste. For the bitter taste I used tonic water. Next week we'll experiment on how taste and smell work together. The third through eighth graders continue to work hard on their animation projects. Hopefully by next week they will start filming them.
