    Drawing Conclusions

    Lay Monday's and Wednesday's charts side by side. Ask, 'If I needed something to dry a spill, which object would you pick and why?' and 'If I needed something to keep rain off, which one?' Your child writes one sentence: 'A good ____ needs to be ____ because ____.'

    Art Connection: Texture Collage

    Gather scraps with different textures (sandpaper, foil, cotton, fabric, bubble wrap, a leaf). Your child glues them onto paper in groups by property and labels each group with a property word (rough, smooth, soft, shiny, bumpy). Do a crayon rubbing over one rough and one smooth scrap to show the difference.

    Week Reflection

    Ask, 'Last week you used your senses to observe. This week you used property words. Which property was easiest to test? Which was hardest?' Record the answer at the bottom of the collage and save it for the Week 6 review.
