In class today we saw one final presentation from Amanda, Katie, and Sara. Their presentation was one the four seasons. They began by asking the class what the four seasons were. We had a discussion about Autumn and Fall being the same. They then showed a video about the seasons. Finally they had a color book of the seasons. After their presentation we went outside as a class to shoot off the bottle rockets from Brittany, Brianna, and Andrea's lesson. We used safety measures when shooting them off such as wearing goggles, aprons, and staying a safe distance away. Some of the rockets flew only a few feet high while others went really high. We tried to decide if shaking the bottle before stepping away made a difference in the height. It seemed that when a bottle was shaken, the rockets did go higher. When we went back inside, we viewed a PowerPoint and took notes about assessments.
