Dream Out Loud, Watercolour Pastel Resist Painting, Water Filter Design Creation and IRIS!

Today we had a special visitor to our school. We had Nancy Mcphee (Stephen's mom) come to our School to speak about Stephen's Backpacks and how it all got started. She explained how her little boy Stephen had a dream. A dream that he "dreamed out loud". Here is a link about Stephen's story:

I am going to think about my dream this weekend and come back on Monday ready to share what my dream is to change the world and make it a better place? 

We finished our Charlotte's Web Spider Web water colour pastel resist today. Ask me what I added to my watercolour painting to give it a neat effect. I had to sprinkle it on top of my watercolour!
Next week we will add special words to describe Charlotte in our web with Silver Sharpie!

Science Inquiry:
We had one last day to build our water filters if we had not finished already. 

Today I uploaded something to IRIS about my Water filter experiment and if I think it will work and why. I also uploaded a picture of my filter. Monday and Tuesday we will get to test our design and see if it works! Please log into IRIS with me and check it out!
