Snow, Snow and More Snow!

Can you guess what our Kindergartens love to do with the snow?

We'll give you some hints...

They love to EAT SNOW!

At our Science table we decided to bring some snow into our classroom and watch to see what happens to it.

What is happening to our snow?

Ralph - "It's melting from the sun"

Kairos - "It's melting because snow melts when the sun comes up"

Edna - "It's melting because somebody is touching the snow"

Ryker - "It's melting because it needs fresh air and there isn't fresh air in here"

Evangeline - "The snow is melting because it's hot in the classroom, because it's by the heater and the heater is hot"

Tamit - "It's melting because inside it's hot and outside it's cold"

Katherine - "It's turning into water because when water gets cold it freezes and it turns into snow and ice. When it gets warm again it goes back into water."

Our snow MELTED!

We then showed our friends what our snow looked like after it melted.

It had sand and rocks in it.

Is it a good idea to eat the snow?

Abrahim - "No, it's gonna hurt."

Veronica - "No, it will make you sick."

Logan - "There's germs in it."

Felix - "It will make you sick."

Peyton - "If it's yellow than it's dirty."

How did the rocks and sand get inside the snow?

Ryker - "God made them with rocks. He had tiny bits of rocks and put them inside the middle of the snow. Jesus did a miracle and put it in the middle of the snow and not on top of the snow."

Lucas - "Maybe God changed the snow up. He mixed the snow up with rocks.

Dylan - "It fell from the sky."

Miss B - "When the snow falls from the sky, there are rocks in it?" 

Melody - "Yes!"

John - "I don't think so because I saw on the ground there's rocks on the ground and that's how it gets in it."

After our classroom discussion we still noticed our friends eating snow outside.....

Tamit - "I'm tasting the falling snow to see if there's rocks in it."

Evangeline - "We're only eating the fallen snow. It's clean."
