Science

Last Friday, we conducted our first experimented to help us learn about waves. Students thought about what scientists do, and followed the steps to doing an experiment. Partner groups experimented with what waves are to help them build background knowledge to sound and light waves. INQUIRE with your child what happened to the water when a marble, rock, and ping pong ball were dropped into a bowl of water. Also, INQUIRE with them what steps a scientist follows when conducting experiments. Tomorrow, students will explore the question - does sound make matter vibrate? We will continue to do one experiment each week as we continue to explore sound and light waves as well as the scientific process.
