* As I alluded to above, I was having book issues at the library. So the closest we could get to a book on ice was Tacky the Penguin, which is mostly about being tacky, but did include the word "ice" several times. :-)

- First we did the old trick of using a string to pick up an ice cube (put salt on it).
- Then we did some Ice Excavating (from Chasing Cheerios)
- Finally, we made ice cubes in the freezer:
- Science Journal page:
Social Studies:
