Last week Mr. Clark's 2nd grade class made a classroom work farm to compost their lunch scraps to make soil to grow plants with in the spring. Creating the fertile soil via composting helped the students learn about the importance of fertile soil to the Ancient Indus Valley Civilization they are learning about in their class. We can't wait to see what they are able to grow in the spring!

Is it hot enough to melt crayons??
Mrs. Dargan's Pre-K class headed outside today to answer that exact question!
The students made predictions on what would happen when they left a tray of colorful crayons in the sun to see what the heat would do.
It didn't take long for the hot sun to melt the crayons! Ask your little scientist tonight what happened to the crayons when they got hot!!
