How Light Travels (11/6) This week, Ms. Spicer's students have been studying how light travels. They talked about light absorption, reflection, and refraction. Today, they used flashlights and traced reflections of different objects. They then took their traced reflections and turned them into superheros or villians and wrote a narrative story about their heroes using science vocabulary terms.
Encyclopedia Research (11/4) 📚 During library, DT Cox students traveled back in time to the olden days (a.k.a. before Google existed 😱) and were introduced to... Encyclopedias!After learning how these “big book search engines” worked, our students put their new skills to the test by completing a research project using only encyclopedias. No Wi-Fi, no tabs, just good old-fashioned page-turning. And guess what? They rocked it! 📖✨
