Catch up Day

Today was a catch up day. We've been cleaning, doing laundry and trying to get things in order. We didn't have anywhere we had to be at a certain time. We were also working on what a hypothesis is. We have a CD
Martian Television Invasion by Thaddeus Rex that has a song about scientific hypotheses. We saw T. Rex play at a museum and bought the CD. K & C love the music. Anyway we listened to the song on our trip to Michigan and D & K got in an argument trying to learn what a hypothesis is. He was trying too hard to teach her and she was resisting learning. So, today she starts asking me about an apple falling from a tree being a hypothesis. This was the example from the car. Then, she begins to make hypotheses and test them on different objects throughout the house. I think she was starting to get the concept.
