Did you know that science is all around us? In our class we look at the science around us all the time. This week, we have gotten to have picnics outside. On our picnics we have found lots of science. For example, we sat under a pine tree outside. We learned that pine trees grow in the Piedmont region of Georgia. We also saw an oak tree, another tree in the Piedmont region. We saw tadpoles in the stream that runs near the picnic tables. The stream is their habitat and if we mess with that stream, we might destroy their habitat. Good science students do not mess with animal's homes! On the days that it was hot, we sat in the shade. The people that had on white shirts were happy because white does not absorb as much heat as black. They stayed cooler than the kids in dark shirts. I hope we have more picnics so we can see more science in action. Here are the pictures from our picnic. I hope you enjoyed reading my writing. Stay tuned for more.
