1. First we joined classes with Ms. Carey and did a demonstration with rice krispies.  We made connections to math concepts of BEDMAS and order of operations as well as linking the rice krispies to the structure of the atom.

2. We went to the IT lab and worked on our scientist and invention trading cards.
Use COMIC LIFE to create the trading cards (open template, click on education, use trading card superhero)
