We made popcorn today.Connor, Hana and Taika used Puppet{Pals on the ipad to make a short video.

Today we planted cress seeds. We want to watch the cress grow. We had to write the steps that we followed today.

We had so much fun with our buddies on Friday. We made boats using boxes, bottles, containers and all sorts of things. In the afternoon we went over to the school pool and floated them. Some boats floated ... some boats sunk!

On Wednesday we went to The Wee Red Barn. It was such an exciting trip.
