5th Graders investigated Newton's 3 Laws of Motion with the Crater Ball Drop Experiment. The mass of a ball (ping pong, golf, tennis, baseball) does impact the size of the crater.
4th Graders explored the reasoning behind why we get a sugar rush. Sugar dissolves much faster in the bloodstream than complex carbohydrates (aka flour).
3rd Graders problem solved whether or not they could move water from one cup to another without touching it. Thanks to water's matter makeup it can defy gravity through a process called capillary action.
2nd Graders got messy exploring Oobleck. After much debate it was revealed that Oobleck was a Non-Newtonian Fluid, meaning it can take on the form of a solid or a liquid depending on the viscosity or speed of the matters' movement.

2nd and 3rd Graders both investigated the property gas and how it can be used to make things move. The chemical reaction of baking soda and vinegar caused our water bottle boats to move.

Kindergarten and 1st Graders practiced their teamwork using marshmallows and toothpicks to build the tallest tower.
Students in grades 2 - 5 strengthened their teamwork and collaborative skills with a challenge to build the tallest tower using only 25 index cards. These students are incredibly creative and came up with many, many unique ways to design their towers.
