SCIENCE
In 3rd Grade science, there is a STEM activity this year called Solar System Expedition. In this activity, the students use a app called Zappar which allows the student to have a virtual reality experience with our solar system. As they move around the classroom to different planets, the students will gather data about each planet. They then will use their knowledge gained about the planets to choose where they would like to build a space station. Check out Mrs. Helm's class using this app.
