Edinburgh Middle School
Mrs. O'Brien's Sixth Grade Science Class
Sixth graders participated in a gravity exploration lab. Students needed to figure out how far they could jump on Earth. To figure this out, students had to jump with both feet as far as they could. Their partner would measure how far they jumped. They jumped five times and then found their average. Then, they used calculations to find how far they would jump on other planets.
