Today we reviewed types of mixtures.
We recalled that homogeneous mixtures (solutions) look like pure substances. In solutions, the solute dissolves in the solvent.
Solute - the lesser amount that melts in the solvent.
Solvent- the greater amount

Sugar dissolves in water. Sugar is the solute. Water is the solvent.
Sugar is soluble in water but insoluble in oil.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Today we performed our Christmas play for different classes. The kids were wonderful. I will post  the entire performance for those parents who were unable to attend.

The Christmas season is here. As part of the celebrations as well as our religion, art and drama curricula, our class has been preparing for a school performance of a play called “The Not So Silent Night”. It is a comical contemporary re-telling of the Christmas story. Students have been hard at work, creating sets and costumes, rehearsing lines and preparing for all aspects of the production.  We have a dress rehearsal tomorrow at 8:00 am.
  If you can make it, you are invited to come see the fruits of their labours, in front and behind the scenes. We have three shows in Thursday afternoon:

12:55-1:15 PM

1:15-1:35 PM

2:30:2:50 PM

What to Wear: Students should bring their costumes.

Thank you for your support of this endeavor. Public performances of this type are an important part of a child’s musical, artistic and social education.

 Sincerely,

M. Babb
