PAT Time

Almost every Friday, we have 30 minutes of PAT time.

PAT time is to learn, but have fun while doing it.  During PAT time, we experience things.  We get PAT points during the week for being extra coopertive, extra quiet, or extra efficient.  We work together to get points.  If we are too loud or uncooperative we lose points. =(

During PAT time, we usually do something with science or art.

PAT time is a time to be creative and investigate.

Leaf Rubbings for PAT Time

For PAT time last week Teammate #22 suggested we do leaf rubbings.  Team 184 loved this activity.  You could really see the details in the leaves when you did the rubbing.  Some people used pencils, others crayons.  Everyone could splash their work with a touch of their own pizazz.

Colorful Cursive Names

 For our PAT time today we made ripply rainbows out of our names written in cursive.  After we drew all the colorful lines, we painted over the lines with water color paint.  The paint didn't stick to the crayons because wax repels water!  We worked together and enjoyed how each teammate made their creation in a unique way.

Oobleck

For PAT our (Preferred Activity Together) time last friday we made OOBLECK!  We learned about solids and liquids and what happens when you mix cornstarch and water.  It was messy, but we were outside, so that wasy okay.  
Thanks, Miss King, for leading us in this fun activity!
