Simple Machines/Valentines Day Party/Camp Balance




This week we created some simple machines.  Specifically, we looked at a lever, pulley, wheel and axle, and an inclined plane.  The kids built the models and constructed investigations based on those models. 
We also charted our data and made conclusions about how our simple machines made work easier.
Valentine’s Day Party this year is a little surprise.  All you need to know is that everything will be taken care of, and there will be a special presentation.  The kids are going to love it!  Also, please check the back of this newsletter for a class list the kids can use for handing out Valentine’s Day cards.
Look for Camp Balance Notes coming home soon.
