Classroom News: E.C.O. Field Trip and Spears Lesson



E.C.O. Trip to the Liebermann's house:

We saw baby goats, chicks, frogs, frog eggs, and insect larva.  It was exciting to learn about life cycles for many different animal groups!  A big thank you to the Liebermann family for inviting us to visit their home and frog pond!

When we returned to school, students created blog posts on Kidblog telling about a "small moment" from our visit.  Check out our blog posts on Kidblog, which can be accessed via the EMES library webpage.

E.C.O. Spears Lesson:

This Tuesday, we participated in an action-packed lesson that focused on forces and motion.  First, we played motion tag.  Our main lesson activity was spear throwing, which was so much fun!  Students worked in teams to figure out the best throwing techniques, take photos on iPads, and record data about the distance of each throw.

Here are some photos from our last two E.C.O. lessons:
