We have been having lots of fun launching our science study this year. We started by brainstorming and reading about what scientists do. Then, we talked about how we would be scientists this year and do all of these things.
Last week was all about using our 5 senses to learn about our world. My teammate found this silly song on YouTube. Warning: the kids will love it but there is a good chance you will hear it in your dreams… literally. You might wake up at 4:06 am with it running through your brain over and over and over. My students also enjoyed this one and this one.
Brainpop Jr also has a fabulous video on the 5 senses! You will need a membership to view this video. (I highly recommend considering a membership. It is a fabulous site with lots of great resources.)
We took a walk around campus and recorded what we learned about our environment from our senses in our science journals. The kids LOVED the sorting cards that I put in the science center (forgot to take a photo…oops!). These simple little posters helped to anchor our learning throughout the week.
On Friday we decided to use our senses for a delicious scientific investigation!
This 5 Senses Popcorn Investigation Freebie was SO MUCH fun. While we were cooking our microwave popcorn we recorded what we could hear and smell. Then, we studied the popcorn using our senses of sight and touch. Finally, everyone was very happy to TASTE the popcorn. Yum. This set is offered free HERE. The anchor charts and sorts that we used this week are available HERE.
Have a great week!
It’s in reality a great and useful piece of information. I’m happy that you just shared this helpful information with us. Please keep us up to date like this. Thanks for sharing.
What’s up?
I found this article very interesting…please read!
Do you remember the blockbuster hit film The Matrix that was released in 1999? You may not know this, but it has deep spiritual implications concerning the times we are living in and Bible prophecy.
It tells a story of how these “agents” are trying to turn us into machines. We are closer then ever before for this to become a reality when they cause us to receive an implantable microchip in our body during a time when physical money will be no more.
You may have seen on NBC news concerning the implantable RFID microchip that some people are getting put in their hand to make purchases, but did you know this microchip matches perfectly with prophecy in the Bible?
“He (the false prophet who deceives many by his miracles) causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name…
You also may have heard of the legendary number “666” that people have been speculating for possibly thousands of years on what it actually means. This article shares something I haven’t seen before, and I don’t think there could be any better explanation for what it means to calculate 666. This is no hoax. Very fascinating stuff!
…Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666″ (Revelation 13:16-18 NKJV).
To see all the details showing why the Bible foretold of all these things, check out this article!

GOD is sending out His end time warning:
“Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name” (Revelation 14:9-11).
Seek Jesus while He may be found…God bless!
