4th graders- Solid Earth: We are spending this week using a mineral properties table to identify several different minerals. We are learning several techniques to help us identify different minerals, including looking at the hardness rating and doing scratch tests.
5th graders- Water Planet: We are focusing out studies this week on the many stages of a liquid, mainly water. We are looking at evaporation by completing an experiment that will be checking on every day this week. We are also looking at how surface area is affected by evaporation and what makes condensation form.
Donations needed: The science class needs the following materials for several upcoming experiments:
-Several bottles of vinegar
-at least 40 1/2 liter water or soda bottles (need to be clear plastic)
Please contact me if you are able to donate any of the above materials. Linsay_Klim@berkeley.k12.ca.us
