We are going to the theater!

 March 19, we will go to the Poway Performing Arts Center  for a Metropolitan Educational Theater production of The Wizard of OZ

Drew is a member of the cast.  We will  be supporting him as well as seeing  a live performance.  Please watch for the field trip notice this week.

 

Our simple machine  project will be to build  Leprechaun traps using our knowledge of Force and Motion.

Please help by sending to F5 any "junk" that may be used.  This may include paper towel rolls, empty containers, tin foil, little boxes of various shapes and sizes, string etc.  The class will build one trap together!  I am encouraging F5 students to take their knowledge home to apply it to their own Leprechaun trap.  These home projects will be brought to school Tuesday March 16.  The students will present their Traps to the class using vocabulary from our Force and Motion Unit.  Good luck engineers!

The blocks were used in a holiday picture. Thank you Mrs. Fox.
