To celebrate Johnny Appleseed's birthday, we spent the day learning about matter through apple experiments.  All of the first and second grade classes worked together to find out about the properties of the three states of matter.  We learned a lot and had fun learning! 

 

 

How much is a pound?

 

How many grams does an apple weigh?

 

 

 

 

 

Solid, liquid, or gas?

 

That's a lot of grams!

 

 

 

 

 

Scientists use their observation skills.

 

Graphing data is always important!

 

 

So many weights.  So little time!

 

An apple IS less than a pound!

 

 

 

 

Happy Birthday Johnny!  We had a great day!
