The students are excited to complete their homework packets with their families knowing that they will be given a new homework prize. \r\n One of the items was used in the month of March as a way to review and add to our science unit. We were learning about a walking rainbow and the colors of the rainbow. The small paint palette was perfect for them. The students had five of the colors and used red and blue to mix together to create purple.\r\n The toy cars will be used in our K'NEX unit when building ramps. We will use those next week to show how different ramps can impact the distance the car will travel. \r\n The students have been excited every time I get out the large box. They know that something new from our donors... I call them our \"classroom shoppers\"... is about to be placed in our classroom centers. \r\n One of our favorite activities involved the play clay mats. The students love using these with their Play-Doh.\r\n Thank you so very much for considering our classroom project and for donating to our room.
