Today in 5th grade science we did a super fun investigation! We used an electrical circuit the students created in class (with a battery, wires and a lightbulb,) heat lamps, a laser pointer and a magnet to determine whether or not a metal spoon, an iron nail, a popsicle stick, a plastic spoon and aluminum foil could be a conductor of heat, a conductor of electricity, a reflector or magnetic. We made predictions beforehand and some students were very amazed at what the data actually showed after the investigation! #pespantherpride

Kindergarten tried beets, dried prunes, chickpeas, and ruby red grapefruit juice! We liked some things and other things weren’t our favorite but we learned not to yuck anyone else’s yum!

On those days she will read a book and also have new foods to taste! Yummy! #pespantherpride
