As part of an informational text unit, Mrs. Payseur's class will be using coupon inserts to purchase canned goods to donate to the school's food drive. Students are asked to bring coupon inserts and grocery sales papers from Sunday's newspapers. We will use these coupons and match them up with local grocery store sale items to see how much we can purchase for the least amount of money. We also welcome coupons printed at home! If you are unable to bring coupon inserts or a grocery sales paper, please consider donating non-perishable food items to your homeroom class. The class with the most cans donated will receive Chick-fil-A biscuits! All students received a yellow Impact Aid Form this morning. It is very important that every parent complete this form and return it to the school as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to call the school at (803) 691-6851.

This week, Mrs. Lewis and Mr. Meyer's STEM classes looked at the reaction that occurs when Alka Seltzer tablets are dropped into a mixture of water and corn starch. This reaction, when combined with a small volume cylinder made for a fun experiment for our students. Students started out by using a quarter of an Alka Seltzer tablet and varying amounts of corn starch and water. Below is a video of what many of the first attempts looked like. After a few attempts and experimenting with the amounts of their materials, students found a combination that produced very exciting results. |
