River school

We went down to the river today with a fellow homeschooling friend and the kids spent the whole time creating dams, levees and lakes, and then letting a little leak start.  They had a grand time learning about the power of water!  I stopped by the library on the way home and picked up a video about dams, natural disasters, and weather.  They watched the one on dams, and really enjoyed it.  Guess that is what we will study in science for a little while!  I told them that if it was nice tomorrow we might go back to the river.  I am taking a good book with me this time, as my friend won't be able to go again tomorrow. 


 


I will post pictures of their creations and some of them in front of Mt. McKinley later.
