Get Your Math Game On...

Since Macy's flash funded this project, I was able to put up another project that is dear to my heart. Lady Gaga is matching funds for a limited time until her funds run out. I also learned of another cool way for us to practice our math facts, so I put in for that as well. Please feel free to share with anyone that owns a business or friends and family that would like to partner with our class to make it a place that your kids want to be every day. I feel my goal is to make kids want to come to school to have "fun" and sneak in all the learning so they become lifelong learners!

A Visit to the Makerspace

Makerspace Time

This week we had our first visit to the Wenonah Makerspace. We started the Great Evapo Race. 

We also got to explore a little to see some of the cool things in there.

Spin-a-Web

We learned about what it means to be an engineer and the design process in order to Spin A Web that would catch a two pound weight dropped from one meter. After testing and some revising, most webs successfully "caught" its prey.

The Multipurpose Room Makerspace for a Day

Makerspace for a Day

The Sachem Public Library came to fourth grade for the morning to share some of the fun and cool things available to your kids in the library. Make sure to check it out the next time you are there. I hear that the cafe upstairs makes a really mean Rainbow Cookie Latte too!
