Prefixes Are Important

We are learning about ways to read and understand new words. Prefixes are what is added before, or in front, of a word to CHANGE the meaning of the word. 


We listened to a Flocabulary Video to learn about Prefixes.

How To Make a Volcano Erupt

To help us learn To write How To's we did a science experiment! We made a volcano erupt. We talked and wrote about every step. We learned new vocabulary words. 

Together, we rolled out Playdough to make our volcano. 


Next, we poured vinegar, water, and food coloring into our volcano. 

Then, we predicted what would happen we when added baking soda. We looked at pictures of volcanoes and talked about  the words explode, erupt, and la

"It will come out." 
"It will explode."
"It will erupt." 


Wow! We were so excited! It erupted! 



We wrote about each step.
