Our class had the opportunity to go outside and see how apples can be pressed into cider. Each student had a turn cranking the wheel on Mr. D's apple press and watching the juice run into a bucket. The cider was then heated up and we were able to try the end product, delicious!
This past week we observed how pumpkins of many sizes all floated in water. The students made predictions as to whether a small, medium, and large pumpkin would float in a large container of water. We also predicted which pumpkin would have the most seeds. The students all weighed themselves and decided if they would weigh more or less than the largest pumpkin. They all had wonderful guesses and used scientific thinking for many of our weeks experiments.
