How the World Works


The first graders had an exciting week preparing for their summative assessment for How the World Works.  The Explorers created roller coasters out of foam.  They were challenged to make their roller coaster have two hills and a loop.

How the World Works

It is hard to believe we are in the 4th week of our Unit of Inquiry.  Our Central Idea, Forces affect the way objects move, has the children focusing on force and motion. We also had a special treat this week.  Jonah's mom came in on Tuesday and did a special Chinese New Year celebration.
