Today we practiced using a thermometer. We read the degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit. We checked on the floor, on the window ledge, near the ceiling, and outside!

Fun With Fossils!
Today we made fossils! We mixed coffee, used coffee grounds, salt, and flour to create leaf fossils. After we mixed the ingredients, I distributed a small portion of the mix to each student, and they pressed their leaves into the fossil mixture. It will take a couple of days to dry and then each scientist will have their very own fossil from almost 10,000 years ago!

Rocks!
In Seventh Age Science we are leaving animals and moving onto non-living things; ROCKS! Today we practiced scratching rocks to see if they were hard or soft.

Fish!
This is Fred the fish. He is very happy because he is swimming in a clean river. Unfortunately, Fred's happiness doesn't last long because pollution from toxic waste, oil, salt, and litter cause Fred's river to become polluted.
Below are pictures of Fred the fish after pollution occurred.
