February 6: STEM Activities, Cardboard Convention, Family STEM Night February 15 6-7 PM, VEX Competition - March 8

Please join us in the STEM room and LMC for an hour of Cardboard Convention! I am looking forward to seeing the work you and your families have done, and you will love seeing the work kids have created here at school. One problem that is being solved is an automatic trash can for Mr. Alberto the custodian:) 

Thank you so much for your donations! I am good with cardboard right now, but I would love toilet paper tubes!

5th Grade VEX Club will compete March 8 after school. I will give you more details when I have them. Their robots are really coming along, and they are practicing driving them, too!

Hello, Frisco Families,

I have a quick activities update for you!

5th grade - Ms. Lloyd and I are collaborating to help the students create models of daytime, constellation movement, the phases of the Moon and seasons, so they can teach younger students. Students are not only become experts in the science, but they are learning about how different grade levels have different attention spans and other awesome educational sciences things.

4th grade - We are using Makey Makeys this week to create an interactive human body system. Last week, kids made a paper piano in order to learn about how Makey Makey uses circuits to turn different things like graphite and paper into sounds. Here is a video!

3rd grade - 3rd grade is learning about electricity and magnetism in their unit of inquiry, and we made magnetic cars that are propelled by magnetism.

2nd grade - Last week, we built the Lego wall into map features to go with their geography work. 2nd graders are planning to engineer a house and foundation that can withstand large storms and erosion. 

1st grade - 1st graders are using houses from different cultures as inspiration for building using only the materials you would have available to you.

Kindergarten - Kindergarten is learning about pushes and pulls, so we are doing a number of centers to feature this. We read Jack and the Beanstalk, and they engineered different ways for Jack to escape the giant as quickly as possible using the big magnetic ramps and balls wall and marbles runs. In order to escape safely, Jack (the ball) must land directly in his house (the cup). See our video here. Here are pictures. Kinder Jack pictures

¡Por favor, únanse a nosotros en la sala de STEM y LMC para una hora de Convención de Cartón! Estoy deseando ver el trabajo que ustedes y sus familias han hecho, y les encantará ver el trabajo que los niños han creado aquí en la escuela. Un problema que se está resolviendo es un bote de basura automático para el Sr. Alberto el conserje:) 

El club VEX de 5to grado competirá el 8 de marzo después de clases. Les daré más detalles cuando los tenga. ¡Sus robots están realmente avanzando, y están practicando la conducción de ellos, también!

Hola, Familias de Frisco,

¡Tengo una actualización rápida de actividades para ustedes!

5to grado - La Sra. Lloyd y yo estamos colaborando para ayudar a los estudiantes a crear modelos del día, el movimiento de las constelaciones, las fases de la Luna y las estaciones, para que puedan enseñar a los estudiantes más jóvenes. Los estudiantes no sólo se convierten en expertos en la ciencia, pero están aprendiendo acerca de cómo los diferentes niveles de grado tienen diferentes períodos de atención y otras cosas impresionantes ciencias de la educación.

4º grado - Estamos utilizando Makey Makeys esta semana para crear un sistema interactivo del cuerpo humano. La semana pasada, los niños hicieron un piano de papel con el fin de aprender acerca de cómo Makey Makey utiliza circuitos para convertir diferentes cosas como el grafito y el papel en sonidos. ¡Aquí tienes un vídeo!

3er grado - 3er grado está aprendiendo sobre la electricidad y el magnetismo en su unidad de investigación, e hicimos coches magnéticos que son propulsados por el magnetismo.

2º grado - La semana pasada, construimos la pared de Lego en las características del mapa para ir con su trabajo de geografía. Los alumnos de 2º están planeando construir una casa y unos cimientos que puedan resistir grandes tormentas y la erosión. 

1er grado - Los alumnos de 1er grado están utilizando casas de diferentes culturas como inspiración para construir utilizando sólo los materiales que tendrían a su disposición.

Kindergarten - Kindergarten está aprendiendo acerca de empujes y tirones, por lo que estamos haciendo una serie de centros para presentar esto. Leímos Jack and the Beanstalk, y diseñaron diferentes maneras para que Jack escapara del gigante lo más rápido posible usando las grandes rampas magnéticas y el muro de pelotas y las pistas de canicas. Para escapar sano y salvo, Jack (la bola) debe aterrizar directamente en su casa (la taza). Vea nuestro vídeo aquí. Aquí están las fotos. Kinder Jack fotos
