MONTGOMERY CATHOLIC’S HOLY SPIRIT CAMPUS GETS CREATIVE WHILE STUDYING THE LETTER “O”.

Montgomery Catholic's Holy Spirit Elementary Campus focused on the letter O for the month of January. Mrs. Mary Walker introduced the letter O to her K4 students by making oobleck, a non-Newtonian fluid that has properties of both liquids and solids. You can slowly dip your hand into it like a liquid, but if you squeeze the oobleck or punch it, it will feel solid. Josiah Monson and Parker Dunlap enjoy playing with oobleck while their creative teacher, Mrs. Walker looks on.
