Be An Explorer!

Want to be an explorer? You can observe things inside and outside with these cool binoculars you can make at home!

Have a grownup help you glue together 2 toilet paper rolls, add some yarn or string and you're ready for exploring!

If you have a sketchbook or notebook you can draw what you see! Have fun!

Hi friends! When the rain stops here is a great list of fun things to do outside in your yard or driveway!

Hi Davis School friends! 

Even though we can't get into the garden at school, we can still think about

plants and what they need to grow.

If you have plants growing outside in your neighborhood you can observe them 

and see what helps them grow.

Below the worksheet are word cards to help you.

If you have a printer you can print out the worksheet and cards

or you can write on a piece of paper the things plants need.

Have fun!

Float and Sink in the Kitchen!

Let's have some fun while we're stuck at home! Get an adult to help you with this sink or float science experiment!

You can use items straight out of the kitchen for our sink float water science activity. Grab different fruits and vegetables, aluminum foil, aluminum cans, spoons {both plastic and metal}, sponges. You could also test peeling your vegetables or slicing them. Plus I am sure your child will be able to come up with other fun things to test! This is so simple but very engaging for young scientists.
A couple of interesting things we tested in our sink float water activity were the aluminum can and aluminum foil. We noticed the can floats, but when pushed under will sink. We could see the air bubbles coming out that helped it to float. The aluminum foil floats when it is flat, when it is crunched into a loose ball and even a tight ball. However if you give it a good pound to really flatten it, you can make it sink. Removing the air will sink it. 

Have fun in your kitchen sink!

Davis Gardeners

Here are some Davis friends working in our garden last year! Hopefully we will soon be back at school and can work in our gardens again!

Spring Is Here!

Hi families! Here is a chance to do some spring writing! 

Copy and paste this sheet so you can print it out and

do your writing right on it.

If you can't print, use the ideas and do your spring writing

on a plain piece of paper.

Feel free to add some spring drawings if you want!

If you can, have an adult take a picture of your writing, email it to me and 

I will put it on our blog.
