5th and 6th - Metric Measurement

Fifth and Sixth Grade have been learning about the metric system, and also learning how to do precise measurements using rulers, triple beam balances, and graduated cylinders. 

First Grade Models Light and Shadows

Students worked in pairs to create shadows that their classmates had to recreate.  They used a block, a flashlight, black paper and chalk to create a model of their shadow. They used that model to challenge their classmates to use a flashlight to create the same shadow- with the same size, shape and placement.

 

Third Grade Ramp Challenge

Third grade was given a variety of ramp materials, and challenged to get a pingpong ball all from one end of the lab to the other.
