Magnets 
The next topic of study, which will extend through the month of January, is Magnets. 
Do you remember playing with magnets when you were little?  Share these stories with your
child.  I remember my brothers owned a set that had a bunch of little metal pieces.  There
were metal trays that came with the set.  We could construct stuff with the metal pieces
'cause the magnet would hold the pieces together. 
If you have anything to contribute (books, magnet sets, special magnets, items that contain
 magnets) please send labeled items to school with your child.  Thanks! 
These sites have ideas for activities to do with your child at home: 
Magnet Links
Activities Which Teach The Public/Private Nature of Science 
Activities Which Teach The Values that Underlie Science - Questioning
Other Magnet Activities
Let me know if you find the sites useful!
