Designing, creating, testing and redesigning our marble mazes. Everyone is hard at work, they even gave up snack time to continue working on their projects. @MetroDPCDSB

Exploring the near and far reach of a magnet’s magnetic field. The grade 3s loved experimenting and showing off their discoveries. @MetroDPCDSB

Demonstration day today…lifting objects with levers. The grade 2 kiddos were excited to lift up their teacher with a lever. @MetroDPCDSB

[metroGAL @GalMetro]

Testing out forces and their effects on objects (gr2/3). The grade 3s also experimented with gravity to answer some of their wonderings. @MetroDPCDSB

[metroGAL @GalMetro]

The grade 2s were exploring position and direction in science class by coding with their peers. @MetroDPCDSB

[metroGAL @GalMetro]

Demonstrating the effect force has on objects: start, stop, change direction, speed and/or shape. Well done grade 3 @MetroDPCDSB

[metroGAL @GalMetro]

From blueprints to reality…creating our forts and solving structural problems in real time. “I am using tension to keep the sheet in place.” @MrsGuiyab @MetroDPCDSB

[metroGAL @GalMetro]

Day 1 is where the blanket fort ideas start to be created. Exploring the strength and stability of structures in science. @MetroDPCDSB @MrsGuiyab
