Today we learned about friction; friction is when two surfaces meet together. We had three slopes; one was carpet, one was cardboard and the other was vinyl and we tested which one had the most friction and which had the least by pushing a toy car down each one and seeing how far it went. Carpet had the most friction (I guessed that).

We learned about Pablo Picasso today too;
  1. When Picasso fell in love, his paintings were happy - this is called his Rose Period
  2. When his friend died, he using a lot of blue in his paintings - this is called his Blue Period
  3. He died in 1973 (when daddy was 4) - he was 93
  4. His father was an art teacher and he wanted his son to be a great artist
  5. He is most famous for his Cubism paintings
