It was wonderful meeting all of my new students, today! It's always so exciting to begin a fresh, new year! I'd like to send a great big thank you to all my parents for sending in supplies and working on the Writer's Notebook Cover Pictures with your children. They certainly loved sharing all of their special pictures of family, friends, and pets. I can't believe how many pets some of you have! Well...welcome to a fun filled year of fun, fun, fun!
Students worked collaboratively in groups to design a hot air balloon out of common everyday household items. They had to use their math knowledge of weights, measurements, volume, as well as their science knowledge of air pressure, wind, and matter. After learning from videos and pictures from the internet, the students designed, as engineers, their very own hot air balloons! Check out the pics! |
