What did we learn today?

• In science, we did an experiment with Starbursts, which represented the rock cycle.  We compressed, cemented, added heat and pressure to the Starbursts, making them different shapes and textures.  We put one in the microwave for 1 minute and it came out as Starburst oil.  It even had bubbles like igneous rocks! 
• In language arts, we learned about similes and metaphors.  We watched a video then we sorted similes and metaphors from the story The Polar Express.
• In math, we learned to compare and order numbers in grade 3 and how to sort numbers into Venn Diagrams in grade 4.
• Today in gym, we did hockey.  We practiced our dribbling.  Then we got into buddies and did passing.
