Our fourth grade scientists tapped into their curiosity using science equipment and items from our classroom to investigate and compare mass and weight. They used a pan balance to identify two different items from the classroom that had the same mass. That took a while! They also used a pan balance to determine which combination of weights had the same mass. They also used spring scales to determine the weight of four different objects from the classroom. Lastly, they used hand lens' to get up close and personal with a penny and their skin. Drawing what their skin looked like magnified many times was pretty cool!! Stay tuned as we continue to investigate the wonderful world God made for us.
Fourth grade has gotten off to a great start! We have welcomed four new students to our class. I am blessed to have each and every one of them. The students are settling into the routine of middle school well. We have been busy enjoying the interactive science curriculum and hands on activities. This week band and choir started. A number of fourth graders are participating this year. We can't wait to for their Christmas concert!
