5th Grade: This week in science, we've been discussing the periodic table. The students have now started a research project. Each table group has been assigned one group of elements (ie. noble gasses, metals) and is working on researching key properties, examples, uses, and fun facts. We are using computers and books for our research. Students will either be presenting to the class using a poster or a PowerPoint presentation.
- What group of elements is your table researching?
- What have you found out so far?
4th Grade: The fourth graders are continuing their exploration of electricity. We made a simple circuit with a battery, bulb and wires early in the week, and then we will be moving onto a more complex circuit with a switch.
- What can electricity be converted into? (Light, motion, heat)
- When there is a break or opening in a circuit, what happens to the light? Why? (It won't go on because electricity travels in a circle.)
