Mrs. Wells along with students in third grade conducted experiments earlier this week involving soda. The goal was to find out what causes the reaction between a diet soda and Mentos candy: the sugar in the candy or the texture of the candy. They dropped Mentos, gummy bears and sand into three different bottles to see which would create the most (highest) reaction. The sand produced the highest geyser, proving that the texture was the cause of the reaction.

As a part of a Livingston Manor Central School District's Wellness initiative, we are encouraging families to celebrate their children's birthdays in school in a more healthful way. Families can opt to use the Celebration Cart, for prekindergarten through fourth grades, or Blender Bike, for prekindergarten through sixth grade, in place of traditional food celebrations.
The Blender Bike is a stationary bike that invites students to spin and blend smoothies for the whole class to enjoy.
The Celebration Cart is full of fun games and activities to help celebrate students’ special days.
Families who would like to use the Celebration Cart or Blender Bike should contact their student’s teacher with the child’s name, birthday and which celebration they would like to use at least a week ahead of the desired date of use.
Those who would like to use the Blender Bike must provide materials, such as yogurt, fruit, spinach, etc., to make the smoothies.
More information and the request slip will also be available in an upcoming elementary newsletter.
