From Trees to Wood

Today we started our next science unit- Wood.  Students explored five different types of wood, basswood, pine, redwood, plywood, and particle board.  We briefly talked about how plywood and particleboard are made.  Here are some pictures of our exploring:




In math today we talked about a fancy word, estimation.  Estimation means a smart guess.  We estimated the number of cubes in a jar.


We had a wonderful day!

Love,
Mrs. Huettl
