2014 started out with 2-hour delays and cancelations! We have gone from -9 to almost 50 degrees in less than a week! Needless to say, it has been difficult trying to get 1-C back on a consistent schedule! Hopefully the weather will calm down and everything will feel normal next week!
Don't worry, with the little time we did have together this week, we learned a lot! In Science, we are finishing up our Weather Unit. This week we learned about four types of clouds and we ended our week with a simple science experiment; Rain in a Cup.
This experiment taught us that when a cloud is filled with liquid, it rains or snows. We filled a cup with water, topped it with shaving cream (the cloud) and squirted blue food dye on top (the rain). The students observed it starting to rain. Some of the clouds were not completely filled, so no rain occurred!
