Ask Me About:
We learned a number of new vocabulary words in Science today.

What does adhere mean?  We started an experiment to see how well paint will adhere (stick to) different types of materials (e.g., tin foil, wax paper, cellophane, regular paper).

What does transparent mean?  (See through)
What does opaque mean?  (Can’t see through it)
