Blood factory!

Today we learned all about our blood and the different blood cells in our bodies.

We made blood using Cheerios (red blood cells), marshmallows (white blood cells), popcorn (platelets) and water (plasma).

Here is a video of us discovering what 5 liters really looks like...



Homework for tonight:
  • Draw and label your "Drop of Blood - Magnified"
  • Complete any math set homework (Ms. Murphy's set - JUMP page 202)
  • Choose your speech topic! Ms. Murphy wants to hear your ideas by Friday.
Reminders:
  • Tomorrow is the last day to bring in forms for the Aquarium Sleepover
