Our Labeled Monsters

The cubs had a great time creating these monsters! 


Each monster was created after listening to a rhyme.  The cubs made the body part after hearing the rhyme.  They were able to add some of their own features.  The last thing they did was add some labels.


Teddy Bear Creations

The cubs made their own teddy bears.  You can see how creative my cubs are by looking at their teddies.

Book Clubs

These cubs are working together to read about bears.  They took turns reading the book.

These cubs all read their book together.  One cub held the book and pointed while the others read with her.

These cubs took turns reading the book.  Everyone listened to the reader.

These cubs are reading this non-fiction book about bears together.  Everyone was choral reading it.  Then they told the group two interesting facts that they learned from the book.

Mad Science Lesson---Dry Ice


Click to play this Smilebox slideshow
Here's what the students wrote about this lesson:
Dry is so cold it burns you.  There was gas called carbon dioxide.  Gas is air.  He talked about gas.  My favorite part was shen he went around and got smoke on us!  Carl put a balloon on a science bottle.  It blew up.  In Mad Science we learned about carbon dioxide. (a.k.a. smoke)  It is like the stuff in soda.  A gas is the oxygen we breathe.  Dry ice is so cold.  It is colder than your refrigerator.At first if you pick up dry ice, it will feel hot. I learned we should never touch dry ice with our bare hands.  There was a little bottle called Peter the Penguin because it has like a little beak.  Smoke came out of the beak. When I came to the rug we were like chemicals. First we were squished. The we got a little squished. Finally we weren't squished. We got to learn about solids, gasses and liquids.  We learned when you put dry ice in a big bucket, it makes a lot of fog.  The particles in solids are very close.  Liquids are spread apart.  Air is very spread apart.  Dry ice is carbon dioxide.  Regular ice turns into a liquid, then a  gas.  Dry ice doesn't.  It just turns into a gas.  One kind of gas is air.  When we were close together, it's called a solid.  When we were a little apart, it is called a liquid. Science is very dangerous.  Franny K. Stein is a Mad Scientist, too!  I learned that gas is very easy to walk through.  I loved it. It was fun!
