Class Stuff
I thought I would send out a quick update as to some of the things going on in class. Yesterday, we discussed Newton's Second Law of Motion which states that the acceleration of an object is determined by two variables - the amount of force placed upon the object and the mass of the object. In other words, if an object has lots of mass, it takes more energy to move the object than a less massive object. And if you want an object to move farther, you need to use more energy to move it. To demonstrate this law we played shuffleboard using different coins. Depending on the mass of the coin, students had to change how much force they used to move the coin. Blending shuffleboard with music from the 70s proved a good time by all! 😁 5th grade Passion Projects are moving along well. Several students already completed parts of their project. A large group of students spent time composing emails to various organizations so they can get more information on their projects. One way you ca
