When I download it, it does not show up all the way. There are black spots where some of the words and graphics should be.

Gina S (TpT Seller)
Thanks so much! I probably won't be able to get parents to bring in ingredients I may be better off just asking them to send in a couple dollars so I can buy it all.
May 8, 2012
Creative Teaching (TpT Seller)
No problem. Luckily there aren't too many expensive ingredients. Have fun!
May 8, 2012
Gina S (TpT Seller) re: What's the Matter? A science unit on matter.
For the Ice Cream in a Bag activity, does each student make their own? So if I had 20 students I would need 20 sets of all the ingredients?
May 8, 2012
Creative Teaching (TpT Seller)
Yes. The recipe is for one serving so that all the students make their own bag. I assigned parents to ingredients. The kids loved this activity!

tiffallee re: What's the Matter? A science unit on matter.
Hi! I am just curious if your "Whats the Matter" pack has a recording or experiment sheet for each of the experiments that you've listed.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
This is my fourth year teaching. I taught K for one year and 2nd for 3 years. I am currently a K-2 teacher at a private school that a couple of colleagues and I founded! It's been an exciting year :) You can also check out my blog: www.msdurning.blogspot.com
MY TEACHING STYLE
I believe that learning needs to be hands-on, engaging, and meaningful. I support Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences because I truly do believe that nobody can learn the same way.
