Ms. Currie's 4th grade students build catapults using tongue depressors, popsicle sticks, rubber bands, tape and plastic spoons. The goal is to shoot a projectile (paper wad) into the 3 targets (foam cups on the table). The objective of this lesson was testing elastic potential energy. The students had a fantastic time learning! Thanks to gina Karber for sending the pics and info!

Last week, Mrs. Johnson-Gulley's class was hard at work! She said, "They tried a different approach to learning how to combine two consonants to create a single sound, or a beginning digraph. This idea could be explored by students in a number of different ways. Some students looked for terms including sh, th, wh, or ch in books from our classroom collection." She added, "This option was crucial because it allowed my kids to understand that they would need to be able to read and recognize words in addition to being able to spell them. Others filled out a worksheet that improved this ability. Giving my children those options definitely makes their learning worthwhile!"
