Second graders are connecting what they learned about rearranging pieces of matter to create a new object. The same is true with our play-doh process. In both processes, we used the same ingredients--flour, salt, and water. How we arranged those ingredients affected the play-doh we got. We'll close out the year making the best play-doh with the properties we desire--play-doh that is smooth and not too sticky!
One second grade class added salt, then water and then flour.
The other second grade class decided to make the water hot before adding it to the salt, and then added the flour.
Each play-doh was smoother and less sticky than the original process! Each student has a copy in their notebooks.
