Fast or Slow Experiment

We built a tower to help us decide if something fast has more energy.  We did slow and fast.  Fast worked.  Slow did not work.  My prediction was that fast things have more energy.  The fast ball knocked down half of it.  The slow ball did not do anything.  We decided that fast things do have more energy because fast knocked down the fort.

Engineering Project: Sewing!

Sewing helps our students grow in a number of the Next Generation Science Standards. Here is one example. 3-5-ETS1-2. “Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.” Thank you, Mrs. Shedd, for providing this amazing STEM opportunity. We love it here!
