We retested the icy water again, but this time we wore a "blubber glove". This was actually some plastic bags filled with Crisco, or blubber. We could really feel the difference - the blubber kept our hands warm in the icy water!
We watched some short videos about walrus and polar bears, and used that information to write in our journals and create some art work. We also drew a diagram of the earth and located the Arctic and Antarctica. We know that penguins live in Antarctica, and polar bears live in the Arctic...they would never meet!
We finished the week by creating a winter bird house project.
Next week we will read books by the author Ezra Jack Keats!
