Our science unit has been all about the design process and how engineers develop/use technology. After our test this morning, we had a special guest come in this afternoon. Thomas is an engineer at Integrity Windows in West Fargo. He told us about how they design and test products and how the design process is used everyday in his job. We even got to see a few videos of actual tests done on the windows (including shooting 2x4 pieces of wood at them!).

Here's a look at everyones Character Trait App Smash! We have fit so much into November even with a few short weeks in there! Here are a few pictures from Tom Selley's (the Veteran who walked to Ft. Aber) and working on math.
We put to use our knowledge of the design process this week! Each group make a prototype of a way to protect an egg from cracking when dropped from a certain height. We tested our models on Friday. ALL of the groups were successful!
I had SO MUCH FUN on Halloween with the 4th graders! In the morning we played a few themed math games and got to decorate pumpkins! We had a blast in the afternoon with all of the fun planned activities! |
