What's Going on in C4 ?
April 8, 2016
It's Rocket Time!
The key understandings that the students should learn from this unit are:
1. Unbalanced forces cause a change in the motion of an object.
2. Energy is needed to change the direction of an objects motion.
Enjoy the pictures and videos from this week activities! Thanks again for joining us this week Dave!
Summer Opportunities
I also received an email from Teresa Arth about I-ROCK-U MUSIC STUDIO Day Camp. There is also a link to a website with more information below.
The Next Weeks' Activities
Next week we will continue our Rocket Unit by learning more about rocket design and energy sources for powering our rockets.
The 3rd and 4th Grade will continue working on their deductive reasoning skills through an activity called "The Detective Club". They are also getting closer to finishing their Sagia Projects where they are creating a plan for how to save an endangered animal who lives on their island.
I am very excited about the Explore! projects that the 5th and 6th graders are creating! The kids will continue working on them for the next 2-3 weeks. I hope to have a Gallery Day/Night where the students can share their projects and ideas!
Check out this weeks Padlets!! See what your kids have to say about what is going on in class and then ask them about it!
