Ms. Calhan's 6th grade scientists have been busy learning all kinds of amazing things! Students have had the opportunity to participate in several hands on, engaging activities to expand their scientific knowledge!
Defy Gravity Lab: The students learned about the air pressure inside the cup and the air pressure outside the cup are equal.
Egg Drop Design Activity: The students built a device to protect an egg and prevent it from breaking when dropped. This project addressed potential and kinetic energy.
Newspaper Shoes: In this engineering design challenge the students creatively designed newspaper shoes.
Polymer Lab: The students stretched plastic (polyethylene molecules) to seal around a pencil in a bag filled with water.
Spaghetti Tower: The students used the engineer design process to construct the tallest spaghetti marshmallow tower.
