Next Science Unit

Hi everyone,

Our next science unit will be structures (on a side note..our next socials unit is changes in community. To get a taste of it, check out this website). This is a very fun, hands-on unit. We will be doing daily structure challenges, including pre-planning, building, and reflection. Some will be with blocks in class, but others will be with every day materials. We receive very limited money for class supplies, so I always put the call out to parents to see if anyone has any of the materials to give to the class. Please don't feel like you need to go out and buy everything. Anything is very much appreciated! If you are buying supplies, dollar store brands are just fine! Please send your donations to school before January 30th, as we will be starting this unit the next week.

If you have something to donate, please leave a comment in the comments section so we don't have 30 packages of spaghetti...

Here is our supplies list:

Long spaghetti
Large marshmallows (about 25)
Small marshmallows (lots!)
Plastic wrap
Aluminum foil
Toothpicks (lots!)
Wood skewers
Gumdrops (don't worry, we aren't eating them)
Red Solo cups
Large news paper
String
Masking tape
Drinking straws
Pretzel sticks
