Water Everywhere!

Our inquiry continues! We have been discovering so many interesting facts about water. Did you know that the water we brushed our teeth with this morning, could have been the same water the dinosaurs drank millions of years ago? The water cycle is truly amazing!

Take a look at the song created by Ms. Mori's class:

Mrs. Snyder's class created this representation to show the water in the world.

One of our very exciting discoveries was that even though the earth is made mostly of water, only a small amount (1%) is water we use, fresh water. Most of the earth's water is actually salt water found in our oceans.

The class dyed pasta noodles to illustrate the amount of water represented by each type (salt, frozen, fresh) and created a poster to share this information with others.

Conserving water is about using water wisely. Water needs to be cared for. Mrs. Humphrey and Mrs. Taylor's classes investigated different types of pollution found in our water and just how challenging it is to get it clean!

Water is in places we didn't even think about! Our bodies are made mostly of water! We even add to the water cycle through our breathing, sweating, crying…

Water is also found in the foods we eat! Mrs. Snyder's class dehydrated apples to watch the affect of loosing water.

The class made an important connection:
As this weather gets warmer, staying hydrated is very important for our bodies! Such THINKERS!

Playhouse Square

This week we enjoyed a few trips to Playhouse Square to see two plays, Bleu and Fluff. What a great time to walk through our city and see some beautiful sites. Seeing the new outdoor chandelier in the center of our theater district was thrilling!
