What is inside this soccer ball?

Our questions for the week are:

Can you make a ball?  What do you think is inside these balls? Do you think a bubble is a ball? and Can this ball be opened?  Each day the students are asked one of these questions regarding balls.  It is fun to see what they think the answer will be?  We then add up each group of answers to see which group (yes/no)has the most or least.

We will explore balls by looking inside baseballs, popping bubbles that are the shape of balls, looking inside a soccer ball and making predictions on what is inside a variety of balls.  For math we will be sorting,  we will be painting with balls of ice and beginning our projects for the art show.  We will read a Ball for Daisy and Balls.

This is one of the stories we will read this week?  It is a picture book about A Red Ball for Daisy.  It will be fun for the students to write their own words for the book.  See if your student can tell the story by looking at the pictures.
