Today during math, we made sure that we remembered our class rule: Remember to Play!
We practiced our math problems by writing on our desks! Have no fear, the expo markers wiped right off when we finished. We even know the secret of how to get permanent marker off! With that in mind, why not use our desks to write on!
We also had fun researching volcanoes in class today. We are trying to find out how volcanoes change the Earth and affect human life. This group was looking for information on what happens to lava after a volcano erupts. Did you know that when lava cools quickly it becomes obsidian or that the volcano Kilauea in Hawaii is erupting in 2 places? One group found out that lava can reach temperatures of over 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit!

Thank you 4th grade for blogging about Volcanoes. It is one of my favorite things to learn about. Obsidian is a word that I often hear my grandson talking about when he builds cities in mind craft. I will be sure to share your wonderful blog with our middle school.
ReplyDeleteThank Mrs. Meyer for reading our blog! We are glad you like volcanoes, we will invite you up to our classroom when we finish our projects. Your comment about minecraft has started a whole conversation on how obsidian is used in minecraft. Please post information about what middle school is doing. We are eager to hear about what you are doing in school.
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun being able to write on your desks. I used to get yelled at by my teachers for writing on my desk, but that was long before dry erase markers.
