Our Motion Unit Experiments
Our Motion Experiments!
I hope you enjoy looking at the pictures of our Motion Experiment! The children have been working really hard developing hypothesis, experimenting, and valuing the importance of TEAMWORK!!! They are very excited about our upcoming 3rd Grade Assessment! Our written assessment will be Friday, March 21st! Please look for the Study guide to come home with your child today!
BIG FORCE - LITTLE FORCE???
The greater the force (push/pull) ther greater the colission!
BIG SLOPE- LITTLE SLOPE?
We learned how the change in slope made a difference in the FORCE of our colission!
FRICTION EXPERIMENT
Look what a penny can do!
WAX PAPER
We tested our hypothesis with each textured material, five times to see what our scientific results would be.
TRAVELING PENNIES
Our pennies traveled at the same speed each time, but the texture of the material made a change in the friction of the two materials.
PENNIES IN MOTION
How far will the penny go on tinfoil?
COLLECTION OF DATA!
MEASURING THE DISTANCE OF TRAVEL!
LET IT GO! LET IT GO!
A NEW TEXTURE -VELT
DISTANCE OF TRAVEL ON SAND PAPER!
TEAM WORK!
I hope you enjoyed viewing the pictures of your children hard at work. I am really proud of them for the team work they have shown, their scientific knowledge, and their ability to challenge themselves as learners! Way to go Szczypiorski Scientists!
