YESTERDAY: Physical changes in matter.
Students learned of differences between chemical changes and physical changes in matter. Yesterday's lab allowed students to view water in all the states at the same time with observable changes between each. Warm water (liquid) was poured into a bottle. Ice (solid) was placed at the top. Vapor (gas) was observed rising from the liquid while it later condensed back to its liquid state at the top.
Last week, 5th graders participated in “The Candy Rush.” Each student received a variety of candy. Each type of candy was worth a different amount, varying from 1-1,000,000. Students had to sort the candy and find the value of their candy. Then they used the information they collected to analyze their data. We learned about place value and comparing numbers, as well as standard, expanded and word form. We also recognized the difference between the digit and value of a digit. Lastly, students enjoyed eating their candy!
The 4th graders worked together on a STEM project today. The goal was to sketch and build a bucket tower with the bucket suspended. Students were given a 3oz cup, 20 straws, 36 inches of tape, and 36 inches of string. The goal was to see which tower could hold the most weight. All the teams did a wonderful job planning and working hard together. The winning team as Josiah Gage, Eislee Boatman, and Hayden McMinn.
STEAM today: The student's challenge was to create a tower out of spaghetti noodles and marshmallows. They were judge on the tallest and the strongest. The students build excellent towers which were tall but not very strong. It was a fun task anyways! Great effort!
