Before I show you what Blaze has been doing for science this week, I want to show you Blaze's new hair cut. He had physical therapy in the pool this afternoon, and his hair had become so long and bushy that he couldn't keep it out of his face when it got wet, so before he went swimming, DH took him to get a hair cut. Gone are all the curls, for now, but it won't take them long to grow back.
This week, Blaze has been learning about inclined planes by listening to the following books:
And watching the following videos:
Today, we took a walk around our apartment complex to see what inclined planes we could find.
Ramps and stairs are inclined planes:
The pavement, hidden under all these leaves, is slanted, so that the rain water will run into the storm-drain. That makes this an inclined plane.
Slanted roofs are inclined planes (Blaze has been pointing them out all over town).
Slides and ladders are both inclined planes.
Science is so much fun!

Good post. That rooftop is very cool. What does it house? The super peeked one. Love the hair cut and the slide ride!!
The roof is the mysterious and very cool looking house that's on the other side of the fence from our apartment. It's mysterious, because I don't know how to get to it. I've been admiring that back view for a year now, but I've never seen the front. There is no driveway or street near us that leads there and two fences, with a no-man's-land in between them separate us from it.
Blaze is seriously one of the cutest boys ever!!! Love the haircut!
