Rumblebots!!!!!! An exciting afternoon of energy and force!

Hello Everyone!

We had a great day, doing the following:

  • Discussion about human rights around the world
  • Continued read aloud of A Night Divided
  • Continued Math Assessments to determine level in independent math
  • Science Lesson on ENERGY (Kinetic, Potential, Gravitational, Thermal, etc.)
  • Rumblebots challenge!!

Ms. DeTerra brought out her Rumblebots Racer Track and challenged students to build mini racers to go on our vibrating track! Racers need to be no wider than 6cm and no longer than 10cm. Today they were only able to use bristol board and scissors, but for tonight, I open the challenge to using other materials. Please bring them in if you want, as I will give some time tomorrow for building and then have one scheduled race for all of us. We had a lot of fun today! Congrats to Michael on building the winning racer today. Let’s see what happens tomorrow!

See the Rumblebots Racer video for more information on this challenge. Family members are welcome to help!

Please see all the forms today and make sure to verify student information. Please return forms as soon as possible!!

Have a great night!

Ms. D
