CENTERS:
Science: Students answered the following testable question: What fruits or vegetables will make a battery that produces the most volts? Each student wrote a hypothesis to answer this question and then we tested a variety of fruits and vegetables.We also wrote a conclusion after we completed the experiment. Ask your child which fruit / vegetable had the highest voltage.
Topic Study: We discussed essential questions. We examined the elements of an essential question and the depth of thinking that is required to answer an essential question. We are striving for DEPTH of knowledge! Students took notes and started to work on projects for our May open house!
Math: Students continue to work hard on math problem solving! I love to see the enthusiasm for math!
