The scientists have been discovering motion, speed, average speed, and instantaneous speed. Through our wind-up toy lab, they have learned how to measure the distance and time of an object. Tomorrow we will take the distances and times and convert that to speeds. I am so impressed with how hard they have been working!
Science class-No homework tonight!
