Design Process Using Magnets

In our magnet unit students needed to design either a boat or sled that moved using magnetism. The boat had to be able to move around a pool of water and hold 10 marbles. The sled had to be able to move up and down a ramp and hold a small toy person. Here are the results.

PUMPKIN DROP!

The Grade 3/4 classes are learning about gravitational pull and with the help of Mr. Dyck we timed how fast gravity pulled the pumpkins to the ground. We had a great time and want to thank Mr. Dyck for dropping the pumpkins. Enjoy the videos.

Time to clean up!

Monty the Parrot!

In the book Because of Winn Dixie, one of the pets is a parrot name Gertrude. We thought it would be fun to have Cheryl Crick bring her parrot named Monty to school. We had a great time meeting him and learned a lot about parrots. Parrots are an endangered bird living up to 80 years old. We want to thank Mrs. Crick for sharing Monty with us!
