I was able to go into Nathaniel's class on Friday morning for a few hours to help his Teacher, Mrs. Nilson, with some apple experiments. The kids had a blast. They made apple glasses, they were the cutest things ever, and then they all got to choose an apple and observe them and compare them with the other kids at their tables, and then we put the apples on a scale and they had to see how many little plastic teddy bears would it take to equal the weight of their apple, then they took apples and put them on this really cool little gadget and it spinned all the skin of the apples and so they would measure how long the peel was when it finally broke, and then we made apple pancakes. It was a fun day with apples.
Spencer has made the school band! He will be playing the percussion and bells. He is so excited. This morning he got up and loaded it all up in his carrying case and looked so cute, but man that thing is big and heavy, even with wheels :)
As you cans ee he is very intent in learning and being a good percussion player. John and him will have lots of fun!
