Funnies in Fourth: It's Getting Hot in Herre...

Hey everyone! Hope you are having a wonderful week!! We are having a GREAT week of learning!

This week in science we are talking about heat and how heat can change things..ohhh ahhhh so exciting! The students broke into groups and had to come up with an idea on how to melt an ice cube using things from the classroom. They had to apply heat...they did a great job. One group however..forgot to put their materials on their paper and when it was time for them to do the project..this is what they looked like! Two little boys staring into a red solo cup! I really don't know how MANY times I told them..make sure you have ALL your materials listed, please list all the things you need, hey guys don't forget to put your materials...I even told them they were SOL if they forgot..not even thinking about what the words to that mean and of course someone asked "what does that mean" My reply- sure out of luck! That was a close one!! You ever have those teaching moments and you are like crap I just said or did that! That was mine for the week! Oh well!

Here are the rest of the kiddos and their ideas. We had kids who thought paper would melt it fast. We had kids who thought putting it under the lamp would work. We had kids who thought their hands were super hot like fire and would melt it (they were weenies and could only hold it for 2 seconds). We had one group who thought water would work..they were very excited to see their idea was the fastest!!!

Back to this picture...CRACKED US ALL UP!! Poor boys..really should have listened..one boy said "man well this is gonna take for ever!! Yes Yes it is!!!
