Grade 1 is checking out how scientists classify the things in the world around us.  IT looks like water—and it is!  It is also matter—it takes up space even though it doesn’t have a shape of its own.  We are experimenting to find out more about water as a liquid.

Guess what?  We can do it in science but we can also do it at the pool for PE?!  How great is that?  Shhh, don’t tell Mr. Silva that he is a scientist too.  He needs to find that out himself.

What do you notice about water as a liquid?  What kinds of liquids do you like and why?
