Good Morning,
I hope you are all having a wonderful week. Yesterday we talked about the concept of inertia and started an exploration where we tried to move balls (a variety of sizes) with straws. The students started to record their observations and were also asked to explain why the ball slowed down and eventually stopped. I used this video to start the lesson. We watched the first 3 1/2 minutes. We will finish the exploration on Monday.
We also completed our video project that was inspired from the book The North Star. This is one of the titles from our Global Read A Loud. We also shared this video with our friends in Iowa. Take a look to find out who inspires your child (http://voice.adobe.com/v/G3_wY8v2MR6).
Here is this weeks video:
Notes:
*Wednesday is an Early Release Day. The students are dismissed just before noon.
*Your child has their Weekly News and Weekend Reading in their backpack. Please make sure that it comes back on Monday.
I hope you have a great week.
Peace,
Tommy
