What we did today:

  • Today in science, we learned about about three different types of pulleys: fixed, moveable and the system of pulleys.  The moveable pulley is with the load as it stays up high with a fixed pulley.  We labelled the direction of the forces when each was used.  We also learned that force is measured in Newtons.
  • This morning, we had guests from SWC to talk to us about reducing the plastics in our lunches.  They had questions and if we answered them we got a metal straw.  We can reduce the plastics in our lunches by using reusable containers, using paper straws, a choosing items in the grocery store that don't contain non-renewable packaging.
  • In language arts, we had time to work on our writing.  We had to write a description of our setting.  After, we highlighted the answers to questions we chose to describe and we looked into changing a couple of words to make it better.
  • In gym, we did more frisbee games.  We practiced throwing and catching to each other before playing frisbee baseball.  Ms. Jones asked us to try outfielding close and far and to see which method cut the runners laps quicker.
