Island Vacation Day!



Our school-wide spirit day today was Island Vacation themed! We looked great with our Hawaiian leis on! :) It was also our reading celebration day. All students in our class have met their 25 book goal, so we were all able to go watch our school talent show. It was a fun day!

Our Science Experiment

So, for our science experiment today, we wanted to find out which type of Hershey's chocolate melts faster.... milk chocolate or dark chocolate.

Step One: Make our Hypothesis (most of us thought the dark chocolate would melt faster)

Step Two: Gather our Materials (chocolate, sticky notes, hands)

Step Three: Procedure (We passed out pink sticky notes to the students melting the dark chocolate and green sticky notes to the students melting the milk chocolate. Then we passed out the chocolate and held our hands together while we listened to a story and waited to see which type of chocolate melted faster.)


will it be dark chocolate...


NO!


The milk chocolate definitely melted faster... no chocolate chunks left in these hands! :)


Step Four: Conclusion (We found out that milk chocolate melts faster than dark chocolate.)


We started to write out the steps to our experiment and put it on a poster board that will be entered into the school wide science fair tomorrow. :)

Our science board looks great... we are super scientists!
