Watch Me Fly


The other day we went to the park. The Adair Village park where they have a big slide. I jumped off the slide and it looked like I was flying through the air with the birds. My daddy took a bunch of pictures and then I took pictures of him. Then we photoshopped them together so you could see my jump all at once. 
  If there had been a horse there I would have landed on him and ridden off into the sunset. Oh well, maybe next time.

A Fun Science Experiment

The Water Cycle
Today in science class we did an experiment to show how precipitation is formed.
 We actually made it rain in our house!

First we boiled water in a tea kettle to create a cloud of warm air. Next we held a pan full of ice, that represented cold air, over the steam. When the warm air and the cold air joined condensation formed and it started to rain. 

It was interesting to learn that water starts in the Ocean and ends in the Ocean. Here is a verse that I learned with my lesson "All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full". Ecclesiastes 1:7
