Force and Motion experiment number 1: making hoppers to test out force theories |
Two roles: mission contol and launch master - students worked with science partners to make launchers and see how high they would go! |
We had to revise our oak tag hoppers and make new ones with light cardboard to get better lift off! |
SNOW FUN! |
Our second Mystery Science experiment was building a paper bridge to hold pennies. |
Sample bridge design |
This group has designed and tested their first paper bridge to see how many pennies it can hold. |
Lots of teamwork and creativity went into planning and making the bridges! |
This group tried for an arch bridge design |
Putting the pennies on to test it out! |
On Friday our third Mystery Science was all about magnets and how they work. |
Students had two magnets and a variety of materials to explore with. |
Groups talked and processed their results as they tried different things with their magnets. |

Magnet fun! |
