Have a great weekend, everyone!!

Can you answer this question:  What happens if you mix dishwashing soap, baking soda, and a squeeze of fresh lemon??  It makes LEMON SUDS!

It smelled great.  We used it to clean our desks.

Here we are enjoying our first popcorn party of the year.  Popcorn parties are earned through lots of good classroom behavior.  Yeah for us!

Super Celery Science Project

As an introduction to the scientific method, we did an experiment with celery.  We first made a hypothesis (prediction) of what we thought would happen if we put a stalk of celery in a jar of red water.  After a few days we checked our results and drew pictures in our science notebooks.

Here we are checking out our celery with magnifying glasses.

Here we are enjoying our last wonderful days of fall.

Here are pictures of some of our activities these last few weeks.

Here are some pictures of our bus safety drills from last Friday.

Hello, and welcome to Room 10′s blog.  I hope that you find the site fun and helpful.  I’ll try to post many photos of our classroom activities and also information that you might find useful.  Along the right side of this blog you’ll see  the word “Pages”.  Click on the headings there to find out…

So long to my 2010-11 class of first graders.  You were awesome, and I wish you the best in 2nd grade.  Have a happy, fun year full of learning (and give me a hug when you see me).

Good Luck!

Mrs. D’Hondt
