Our third graders put their creativity and problem-solving skills to the test by designing Rube Goldberg machines to explore patterns of motion! Using everyday materials, they built chain reactions that demonstrated pushes, pulls, gravity, and momentum in action. Through trial and error, they discovered how different forces work together to create motion in a fun and complex way. Check out the photos to see their incredible contraptions in motion!
Our third graders brought the water cycle to life using LEGOs in the Makerspace! As part of their NGSS-aligned science unit, students built models to represent evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection, exploring how water moves through our environment. Through hands-on creativity and problem-solving, they deepened their understanding of this essential natural process. Check out the photos to see their amazing LEGO water cycle models in action!
Our third graders took on the challenge of exploring force and motion using KEVA Planks in the Makerspace! Aligned with NGSS science standards, this hands-on activity allowed students to investigate how pushes, pulls, gravity, and balance influence movement and stability. Through designing, adjusting, and testing their structures, they applied key physics concepts in a fun and interactive way. Check out the photos to see their creativity and problem-solving skills in action!
