In Kaleidoscope we are reading The Trumpet of the Swans  by E. B. White. We have made paper plate swans, done mapping activities about Canada (that is where the story takes place) and talked about eggs and the nest.  We used an egg to talk about Newton's first law of motion. Ask your child to ask you about this awesome experiment!!!!!!!!

 

We hit the pie plate with a sideway swipe and the egg dropped into the water. Newton's law of motion said it would land in the cup of water, and thankfully Newton was right. It worked and I didn't have to clean up raw egg!!!
