Fourth Grade Hands-On Science

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.
