Great coop today!



Smile Margaret!



The group 2 girls!





Ryan looks a bit like a crayfish himself!





This is a shot of our lunch today! With 50 kids it takes a lot of planning and work to get lunch set up. Karen and I have been the "lunch ladies" for the past 3 weeks! Whew! We are worn out.










John's class with Mrs. Tammy and the big whale!



This was a neat experiment. They stuck their hand in a plain ziploc and in a ziploc full of shortening. The hand in the shortening ziploc did not feel cold. Both ziplocs were in ice water.
This demonstrated how whale blubber keeps a whale warm.


Our coop today was incrustaceanously fun! The older group dissected a crayfish. It was cool - here are some pics. Thanks Mrs. Yonea and Mrs. Rachelle for all your hard work.







Mrs. Yonea is carefully explaining the process of dissection.



EWWWWWWW!



Anna is lovin' this!



Mrs. Rachelle is a pro!



Concentration!









Mrs. Rachelle and her friend the crayfish. All is fair in love and science!





Ben's group has been learning some fun things as well. They painted a lighthouse today.
Thank you Mrs. Kim and Mrs. Tina!





Ben gave a great report on Massachusetts!


Claire's Group made lighthouses today and shell picture frames. They are learning a lot as well.
Thank you Mrs. Lori and Mrs. Michelle!
