Science Made Fun

On Monday two scientists visited our classroom to teach us about force and motion.  The pom pom catapults were a blast!  We learned that the bigger the force the farther and faster they traveled.  We also dropped different objects into a vortex and compared how they moved.  The washers went around and around on their edges.  They coins when down faster because they were heavier.  We got to spin tops that had markers on their bottoms and follow their paths on paper. Science is FUN.
