Third graders are making teaching posters of all they have learned about Vertebrates! Did you know amphibians, mammals, birds, fish and reptiles are all vertebrates?
We were given a box of nice apples so 4th grade made an apple crisp this morning! They are excited to taste test after lunch! They have been learning about food preservation by pioneers as part of a social studies unit so this afternoon they plan to put together some freezer apple pie filling to use later in the year. They were quick to point out that pioneers did not have the freezer option like we do today!
2nd grade was hard at work this morning digging the potatoes they planted last spring. They also helped to clean off cucumber and lemon cucumber vines that got a little frost last week.
The 5th graders have been learning about the hardware of our 3D printer. They have also been learning about the software used to design with it. After learning some of the basics, the 5th graders are working in small groups to design fish hides for their aquaponics set up.
Our 6th grade students start their day by helping to care for all of the critters in the CELL including our dart frogs, aquatic frogs, axolotl, beta fish, and saltwater aquarium. This morning some second graders got to help!
Second grade students exploring with Ozobots during Innovation Club. They created free-draw tracks to use to code, and they also learned to code these bots with their iPads.
Over the weekend Coach and Ms.Brood ran a race at Lime Creek Nature Center!
3rd grade has been explored balanced and unbalanced forces in science and innovation club! Students worked with partners to create a mini ping pong ball run with Legos. Then used force (pushes and pulls) to move their ping pong balls through. Next students had to work together to connect all of their mini runs. Today was testing day! Students worked with a partner to move a ping pong ball through the run! Students made predictions about the ball’s movement. They also made adjustments as a class to improve the run! It was aMAZing!
