It's Electric!

    We recently wrapped up with a short unit on Magnetism.  The students really enjoyed all the hands-on investigations and activities that they participated in to learn more about magnetism; one of their favorites was "Breaking the Force."  We also enjoyed a visit from Ms. Lone yesterday and the class thoroughly loved working with the Snap Circuits she brought along with her, as an introduction to our unit on Electricity.  Below you will find pictures from some of our exploration with magnets and their work with Snap Circuits.
