I is for ICKY SCIENCE

~ ICKY messy fun with Oobleck! Science with cornstarch and water!
Oobleck is a non-newtonian fluid. That is, it acts like a liquid when being poured, but like a solid when a force is acting on it. You can grab it and then it will ooze out of your hands.
Oobleck gets its name from the Dr. Seuss book Bartholomew and the Oobleck where a gooey green substance, Oobleck, fell from the sky and wreaked havoc in the kingdom.

Z is for ZOOM out of school & ZIP into summer!

~ One last hour together as 2022/23’s Division 8 Grade 3s – marked our last day together this school year before ZOOMING out of Nelson & ZIPPING into summer! We played summer themed drama games with Ms. Tsumori’s class, watched a PHOTO STORY of our year together and Ms. Watt shared one of her very favourite Dr. Seuss books, Oh, the Places You’ll Go.
Love you lots Division 8 and thank you for all your hard work this past school year. Have a TON of fun this summer and I can’t wait to see you all on the 1st day back in September!
