Shapes, Cake, and Volcanos

The Happy Hounds really used their brain power this week to explore shapes. Almost everybody knows the basic shapes, so we kicked it up a notch! We explored decomposing and combing shapes.

Harly and Shelby are working hard to combine pieces to make shapes.

Carley and Makinna's brains are smokin'!

Mrs. Lisa's group hard at work with pattern blocks.



Our Funky Food activity for this week was Unbelievable Upsidedown Cake.
So fun to make and even more fun to eat!








Our science experiment for this week, Purple Volcanos, was a blast. First we poured grape juice into the vases. Then we alternated adding vinegar and baking soda. The mixture fizzed, foamed, and changed colors as it "erupted".
