1/4-1/8

Our first week back to school was very busy! Following a week in December of fun Christmas activities, along with a two week break, we quickly started on Monday with preparing ourselves for our regular school routines. This week we reviewed nouns, verbs, and adjectives, we learned two different ways matter can change, and we created some individualized goals for the quarter.

Some very big physical changes happened to our gummy bears that were left in water overnight!
