Here are some photos from our Glacial Abrasion Lab. We used ice with sediments and soap (that acted like our land) to show have glaciers can change the way our Earth looks.

This week we created glacier models that illustrated how glaciers erode sediments and weather Earth. We also saw how melting and refreezing causes glacial plucking.

Weathering Rocks Lab

Today we worked on Weathering Rocks. Crayons acted as our "rocks" and several tools acted as our "weathering agents". The students created sediments by weathering their crayons.

Our geologists at work!

Descriptive Writing--- Ewww Lunch

This month we have been working on descriptive writing. Look at our student's faces when they saw their EW Lunch their imaginary mom packed them. Make sure you have your student share their Kid Blog entry about their EW Lunch.

James is disgusted with his squashed cheetos and Logan was grossed out by the burnt toast.
 Austin almost gagged when he saw the moldy sandwich!
 Ew. That's gross!
Crab and salsa sandwich?????

** No lunches were harmed (or consumed) during this lesson:)
