This week we began our Force and Motion unit. Next week we’ll be learning all about the “Rouse Simmons” or better known in the early 1900’s as the Christmas Tree Ship. This week we did some marble time trials, and built mini roller coasters. This coming week we’ll do some measuring of distance over time to calculate speed. When we get back from Christmas Break we’ll begin building our Balloon Cars with the end goal of racing them and crowning an overall Balloon Car Champion. It’s a lot of fun and a great way to get the kids working in design teams and building something using the force and motion content expectations I’m teaching in the first part of this unit.
