Does Matter Matter?

Hello Parents,
  We have taken up studying about Matter this month.  Your child may be coming home and discussing the properties of matter.  We have learned a Matter song to the tune of Wheels on the Bus.  Ask your son or daughter and they may remember a few lines.  This past Tuesday we played a game that involved using our sense of touch to determine solids, liquids and gases. 
Below are a few links to songs and slideshows about matter.  Have fun watching!

Always remember to Reduce Reuse and Recycle!

Student 20 says:"I made an eco-friendly artbox out of 1/2 an old egg carton.  It had: colored pencils, crayons, a gluestick and several erasers as well as a pencil or two.  Way cool!

    I liked the colors of the liquids. We put in soap. I though the soap was best. The corn syrup was the most dense.
