Go-Carts


Today we began to make our go-carts for science. This is one of our very favorite times during the day. Students were put into groups of two and off they went. Their challenge was to create a free rolling go-cart that could roll down a ramp and a short distance across the floor! We gathered wheels, cardboard, wire, paperclips, and other materials. Great learning today 4th Graders. I can't wait to see what you do tomorrow.
