Exploring Movement
Today our class went to the Engineering Lab to explore different types of movement. Our exploration began with the scholars sharing what they knew about movement with our STEM coach, Mrs. Brenegan. Scholars then explored back and forth, round and round, fast/slow, straight and zig zag and up and down. Several scholars discovered that some items move in more than one way!
