This was such a wonderful time with REL students...teachers enjoyed Christmas goodies while REL Principal @MaryGilbertTN read “The Night Before Christmas.” 📖🎄
Students constructed pendulums to investigate back and forth motion. Students observed that weight did not have much of an effect on the motion. The length of the string and the angle in which it was dropped created the most change.
Ss built new vehicles this week! They then made a weight system to complete their investigation. Ss discovered a pattern as they added weight and had to explain the forces that put the vehicle in motion.
Each team studied the materials and what they knew about vehicles... They then designed a vehicle to meet the requirements... some had much trial and error, but all achieved the goal!
Students testing their vehicles... Their challenge was to construct a vehicle that could go into motion without them pushing it and it needed to travel 100cm. Students calculated 100cm converts to close to 40 inches. Gravity put it into motion!
Fifth grade students investigated chemical changes by combining baking soda and vinegar! They discovered a chemical reaction that formed CO2 and inflated the balloon!
5th graders separated a mixture of solids today! Students were able to select tools to separate the mixture after observing their physical properties. They discovered they could separate one solid by using its magnetic property!
