She used her crayons to draw some of her favorite science items, she made patterns and hid objects in her drawing.



She then used the neon watercolors to paint over the crayon drawings creating a little crayon resist on the cover.

Once we had our hypothesis written down we got started on our experiment, we grabbed three colors of popsicles and placed them in the sun. My little ones watched and watched til the first drips started running. They watched and recorded what they saw in their science journals. It took just a few minutes for the pops to start melting. Once they started they went rather fast. The kids immediately noticed a big difference in the red popsicle, it seemed to be melting the fastest.

After our little experiment was done, and a few more popsicles were consumed the kids wrote about their experience in their science journals.
Allowing them the freedom to be creative with their materials and reflect on the experiment they just conducted led to some very creative journaling.



I used the washi tape to help segment off sections so it was easier for my little ones to write their responses. I found this is a helpful tip for the classroom allowing students to visually separate and segment their work into smaller chunks.

I hope you are inspired to get creative this summer and start journaling!
