Voice Thread in KC

Last week we learned how to go on Voice Thread and make comments on different threads created by Mrs. Clancy. We had Mrs. Putnam and Mrs. Clancy teach us how to record our comments and save our work. We learned that you can record, type and draw on different threads. We will be sharing Voice Thread with parents on Friday morning at Drop-In. Mrs. Putnam will be helping us on Friday morning too. She is a Technology Specialist for Wellesley Public schools.

Water Investigations

Sink and Floating 
The goal of this experience is to explore the ways some materials float and sink. We made predictions of what objects would sink or float and why???
We tested many different objects.

Water Drop Races 
For this investigation, we explored the speed of movement of drops of water on a ramp.
Why do drops of water move down the ramp?
What would make the drops move down the ramp slower?
Do big drops move down the ramp faster or slower than the small drops/

Water's "Skin"
Exploring Surface Tension
In this experience the children explored the ability of water to hold together like a sheet. Our Voice Thread below will share some of the investigations we did!!
