Twas the day before Christmas break and all through the classroom.....
We had such a great day before break. The students looked cute and comfy in their jammies. We started the day with a great assembly. Skyview High School came and gave a Christmas music sampling. They were fantastic! Then, we came back to the classroom and made blanket forts! The students had a blast! While building, some students said this was like S.T.E.M. Ha! Sure is! Once the forts were built, we had a read in.
We had sometime in the afternoon to be crafty. We made these cute little ornaments and listened to Christmas music.
To end the day, we had a S.T.E.M. challenge.
These students are so creative and love a challenge. Their ideas were fantastic, and their presentations of the parachutes were excellent. The challenge gave us an opportunity to talk about gravity, drag, mass, and friction. We will be studying flight in the New Year, so this was a fun first taste.
