Welcome Back! We were all excited to be back together today. Our morning was filled with interesting force and motion activities. We played air hockey with ping pong balls at our tables. The donated bottles were used to build bottle rockets. Yes, we were able to touch the ceiling with our rockets. In the gym, we did a ball toss game. We threw different size balls into crates set up at various distances. Other fun activities included trying to move toy cars, rocks, cotton balls, ping pong balls, blocks, and paperclips using air and/or "finger flicks". We made some interesting observations about the amount of force needed to move some objects compared to others. A big thank you to everyone for the plastic bottles you sent in. They were very useful in our activities.
