Happenings for October 31st – November 4th

8th grade classes:

Students are beginning work on their mousetrap vehicles. We are learning how friction and velocity play a part in how our vehicles will be successful. The vehicles will be tested on Nov. 11th.

7th Grade classes:

Students are working on their marble mazes now. They have been doing a great job working as teams to create a maze which will take a marble the longest time to get from the top to the bottom. We even found a cool website called paperrollercoaster.com which shows mazes made entirely of paper. We will test our mazes on Nov. 18th.

6th Grade classes:

Students are working on their invention projects still. At this point many are finished with the report part and are working on their projects.

“A” day classes are to turn in both parts on Nov. 9th

“B” day classes are to turn in both parts on Nov. 10th
