Last week we started building the Legos. Charlie Dodgion led the FLL team in a team building exercise while the other teams worked on their robots.
After the team building exercise the FLL team began assembling pieces from the field set-up kit.

What do fish and airplanes have in common?
Since water is roughly 750 times more dense than air, a fish must overcome an incredible amount of drag in order to stay in motion. Although airplanes don't have much of a problem with this, they must keep themselves off the ground which requires overcoming the force of gravity. As we can see, flying and swimming are very Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136689523041798522.post-4997822532597383252014-10-21T21:39:00.000-06:002014-10-22T16:17:00.942-06:00Waste Management
Waste Management
Landfills are efficient systems designed to deal with our waste. However, it is better to limit the amount of waste we put into them. One way to do this is through RECYCLING!
Students learned that items such as paper can be reused. They reused pieces of paper to make and race origami frogs.

What is a Watershed?
A watershed is an area of land in which all of the water therein flows to the lowest point. This lowest point is often a river, ocean, or underground water table. Rain and snow melt cause this flow of water.
We learned that there is a lot we can do to keep our watersheds clean!

Becoming Scientists
Through a 3-week process, Professor Eastep helped us to investigate natural phenomena on the playground by using the scientific process. Students teamed up to observe, ask questions, and then form an experiment in order to answer one of their questions.
To sum up the learning process, students shared their findings and conclusions with each other.
