Thank you all so much for coming last night and for making science night such a success. I know the students had a lot of fun, and I hope you did too!!
We started learning about sound in science last week! Students learned how sound is made from vibrations. They made a paper cup phone and experimented with different variables to see which one works best.
Today students made cards for an organization called Cardz for Kidz. This organization collects homemade cards and send them to children who are in the hospital battling serious illnesses.
Today we completed our door decorations. Our theme for our classroom door is, "Kindness is the Answer to Everything." Students created pockets with different themed compliments that we placed inside the pockets. People are encouraged to come by our door, take a compliment and hand it out to someone else. We have several math themed "kindness" phrases such as:
The students got very creative!! Students have been learning about the human body in science. Last week they learned that when the eyes see something, the brain registers that and sends messages to the body. Our experiment this week included the class partnering up and dropping a ruler through their partner's hands. The partner had to catch the ruler as quick as possible to see their reaction time. Students played a fraction game with a partner. They chose two cards to create fraction pieces. Their fraction pieces had to be colored to make a whole fraction. They worked on their understanding of fractions and equivalent fractions. |
