Science Fair

All month students have been preparing for Science Fair. Tomorrow are their presentations. This isn’t just a “bring in your poster and explain” kind of thing. THIS is SCIENCE FAIR! aka… art fair, take the whole week to paint fair, skip all your classes fair. The kind of fair where nothing else matter except SCIENCE.

We did spend most of the afternoon putting final touches on the room.

Girls were busy working…

And the boys… well… boys will be boys.

At the end of the day they all sat around and sang a very cool song. I thought it was kind of neat. When I asked what they were singing, they looked at me and held up a glue stick. The words were “this glue sticks- UGH (brand name)”… they had made it up on the spot. I thought it was a real song- they were singing in Spanish.

Here is some photos from the day of presentations. I had a lot of comments on the students’ work. They did a GREAT job. It makes a teacher proud ! 

   

We had the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grader in the room watching too. It makes my room look really BIG having all the kids in my room.

Marvin and his class came to watch.

  

 

BAKE SALES!

Throughout the year each class has sales they participate in so they can raise money for graduation. This week was our bake sale… yes also the week of Science Fair. We were pressed for time so we decided to make Rice Krispie treats, something easy and fun. So Thursday after school, 8 of my 9th graders headed over to the house to BAKE. We made 10 batches of RKT for a total of 100 pieces, we ate as we baked as well. On Friday, we sold all of them!! Making a total of $75 for their class. It was an easy $75 too!
