Science Time!

I just love doing science with these mom's and kids!

Building a green house as we learned about the 3 states of matter.

Here we find water becomes gas (vapor) as it is heated.

The review!  I just love that the review was outside!!

Nothing "schooly" about this, that is one of the things I love!!

Vapor takes up space, expanding to fill whatever shape it is in.

Reunion Pictures (a bit late on getting these pics posted)

Thanks for all the wonderful memories everyone!!!!
