Making messes, memories and more!

Here's how we spent last Friday during the inservice with Club 4/5 - having messy fun!
Here, Jasbir has shown the kids how to make "snow". She gave them each a paper plate with some shaving cream. Add in baking soda, mix it up, then pour on the vinegar and watch the snow expand!
As you can see, the bigger our mess got, the more fun we had.

Here's what they had to say when I asked them to describe what the Ooblek felt like:
