Digging for Fossils
We had a great time digging for fossils. We carefully dug out the fossils, and "preserved" chocolate chips from our cookies. When we were finished, we were able to eat them. YUM!

KNAPP TIME - April newsletter
“KNAPP” TIME
The second graders just finished learning about Weather, Plants and Seeds, and the Water Cycle. It was fun to learn about all these things, and actually see it happening outside. We are excited to begin our next unit – Dinosaurs and Fossils. We are even going to be paleontologists and find our own fossils. How exciting!

Electicity, Experiments, and Excitement!!!!
Thank you to MidAmerican Energy for allowing the Science Center of Iowa come and visit the Storm Lake Elementary. This was a fun way to get the students excited about electricity, as well as learn the importance safety rules. Enjoy the following pictures of the Science Assembly.
The scientist showed the "floating magnets" when the magnets would repel each other.
Static electricity -- "Look at my hair!!"
The packing peanuts "magically" flew out of Ethan's hand. The power of electricity!!!
Let there be light!!!
