3rd Grade Class at Palisades Church Summer VBS: Week 3 of Summer School

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend!

Last Friday, the students of third grade class went to the Pascack Valley Swim Club! I wasn't able to take as many pictures as I would have liked. The teachers, teacher's assistants, and volunteers were all having too much fun playing with the students and enjoying fellowship. But we will be returning to the swim club this Friday. So please make sure to pack a lunch for your child this Friday! Please do not forget (:

This Wednesday, students will be going on a field trip to watch the Staten Island Yankee's game. Students will be going there as soon as worship ends early in the morning. There will be an all you can you hot dog and burger event at the baseball game. Please do not pack a lunch!

It was so exciting to see the third graders again today! For electives today, we had Science as well as cooking class. During the first half of the science class we learned about, "Tangrams". A tangram is a puzzle made up of shapes. Students just spent time combining them into different arrangements to make different patterns. During the second half of the class, we spent time making & playing with "Oobleckh". Oobleckh is a mixture of cornstarch and water. When students dipped their finger into the gooey mixture, students observed that it felt liquidy. However, when they grabbed it with their hands, it felt solid. Students had so much fun and really enjoyed the experiment!

During Cooking Class, we had to come up with a cookie recipe to bake as a class. Each grade had to bake cookies and bring it to the 3 Pastors to be judged. We decided to make Sugar Cookies! The third graders enjoyed observing and molding the cookies into shapes they each desired! After we were done baking, we were able to eat and enjoy our cookies before the day ended!
