We made snowmen

Let it snow,let it snow,let it snow!!

We created snowmen by filling a white sock with rice and wadding.We tied a felt scarf around its neck and put a bobble on top of its hat!

Science Week

As part of Science week we learned about electricity. We learned how to create static electricity by rubbing a balloon against our hair. The electricity created can repel objects.When Anna touched the surface of the Plasma Ball the electricity flowed from the Plasma Ball through her body, down to the ground (earth)!
