In the 1800โs they didnโt have games like we do so we made a game they may have played. Checkers! We mixed in math by using our rulers to measure the squares and put our multiplication skills to the test to see how many squares weโd need! #pioneerlife#pioneergames#novideogames
Today we ate like the pioneers! We made homemade biscuits. We even substituted lard for butter like they would have back then! The best part is they tasted good too... Especially with a little homemade jelly! #lardbiscuits#homemade#cooking#pioneerlife
The next two weeks we will be doing various pioneer activities leading up to our big field trip to Conner Prairie. Today we learned about the importance of hunting and trapping and why pioneers needed to do this in order to survive #hunting#trapping#pioneerlife
Today we were visited by Emma Haney, an Indy 500 princess. We learned about the history of the race and even got to see an official pace car! #indianahistory#indy500#500princess
Today we learned about different types of bridges and how they can withstand force! We conducted an experiment and built bridges with paper. We tested how sturdy they were by seeing how many pennies we could pile on before it collapsed! #mysteryscience#pullvspush#schooliscool
Whoโs ready for warmer weather?! We are โ๐ผ! Today we had some fun by using pool noodles to add, subtract, and compare fractions and decimals! Before we know it weโll need pool noodles for more than just math! #wewantwarmweather#mathisfun#itsmorefuninthesun โ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
