One of the Science units we work on is called Motion and Design. In it, students design and sketch their own K'NEX vehicles, control variables to understand energy needs, explore alternative energies, and more, all while recording the observations of their experiments. This is one of four extended units that we cover. The first was Rocks and Minerals. The remaining two are Electrical Circuits and Ecocolumns. You may get a taste of the Motion and Design experience in the very short videos below. |

The ball has dropped on another year. History was made, and fourth graders hit their stride. Before we look ahead to expectations for the second semester, let's take some time to recall what we went through during the first. We loved the of hanging mathematical laundry out to dry (and plan to do it again soon). Please enjoy watching these two video clips of the event. The first group aptly discusses strategy before executing the task. The second group dives in with vim and vigor. |
