It was another busy week in Math and Science. The energy at Connect was very high with the lack of fresh air (too cold outside!), a visit from the Education Minister (The Honorable Jeff Johnson), the Science Fair presentations and awards ceremony and the lead up to the Olympics. Congratulations to all of those participants in the Science Fair this year - your projects were amazing!
The 4.1 and 4.3 classes did a mini science experiment involving a straw and water. We don't want to give too much away since 4.2 and 4.4 haven't had the opportunity to experience this yet (they will be in the loop on Monday).
We began the excitement of the 2014 Sochi Olympics with the movie "Cool Runnings". Now we all want to cheer on the Jamaicans! Did you know that the Jamaican Bobsleigh Team arrived in Sochi without their gear? That information was found on our new App "SOCHI 2014"! The excitement is in the air as our Math & Olympics inquiry focuses on how numbers play a role in sport? Exploring statistics from many nations from past years, reading charts and graphs and sharing the many wonderful artifacts the arrived in our classrooms and that is just the start of it!
