Young 5’s

Exploring with Science tools!

Kindergarten

The students observed how things move (push and pull) by using jump ropes, balls, and scooters!

   

First and Second Graders 

The students have been learning about what scientist and engineers do.  They explored with legos while building, creating and inventing.  They also learned how to ask questions like a scientist to discover and learn knew things.  (I wonder… Why? What? How?)

Third Graders

STEM Activity (Forces Push and Pull and Motion)

The students had to work as a team to get the stone across the black paper creating a tool using only the materials provided(rubber band, popsicle stick, straw and string).  They can not touch the stone with their hands and they must use at least 2 or more of the materials.

Fourth Grade

The students recognized various ways energy is transferred and transformed.  They experimented with what happens when marbles collide.  What happens when 1 marble hits 5 marble? 2 marbles hit 5 marbles?, etc.  They observed energy being transferred!

Fifth Grade

The students are learning about properties of matter.  They are discovering what’s inside 6 different mystery boxes by shaking the boxes,  identifying some of it’s properties to get evidence, and using the evidence to make a claim (what they think is in the box based on the evidence).
