Our first experiment in science was, “What paper towel will absorb the most water?”  We had 4 different brands of paper towels and we did this by holding a paper towel over the bucket and then we fill the syringe 35 ml. high and then squirt it on the paper towel. And the last step is to stop when the first drop hits the bottom of the bucket.


In science we learned about evaporation, solutions, and saturation. We have done some experiments with those things. We have added so much salt, the water can't take it anymore. This is called saturation. We have done kosher salt dissolving into water and we have done Epsom salt dissolving into water. We know that saturation is when no more substance will dissolve into the liquid. We also know that evaporation is when liquid turns into gas. And solution is a mixture of more than one substance where one substance dissolves in the other substance.

We students in Mrs. Rosen’s class show hard work and
responsibility. We run laps each morning to stay healthy and fit.
It is also a competition because our class tries to run as many miles
as we can against Mrs.Avila and Mrs. Magan. I enjoy running
laps and many others do.
We also have P.E. every other day. We have Band or Art the days
that are not P.E. In Mrs. Rosen's class we also have advanced
math and regular math for fifth grade students. We also have
science or history towards the end of the school day. We have
science in Mrs. Rosen's class and history in Mrs. Avila’s class.

Solar Eclipse


On August 21, 2017 our class went out to watch the solar eclipse. On that day it was my birthday. I was turning 10 years old. And it was a day to remember. If you’re wondering what a solar eclipse is, let me tell you. A solar eclipse is when the moon covers the sun. So the moon orbits the earth and we, the earth, orbit the sun. So when the moon orbits earth it goes around and around. During a solar eclipse, the moon is directly in front of the sun. Our class watched the solar eclipse and it’s a once in a lifetime event to see. If you watched the solar eclipse you’re very lucky! I know I am, It was the coolest thing I have EVER seen. If you watched it very closely then you can see the solar flares behind the moon. I did, it was so cool! The whole process took about 45 minutes. That’s 45 minutes off of haha. But when it was the darkest it was about 10:15. It was only about 2 minutes when it was the darkest but it was cool.                                                                By:Cadence Nott
