The Power of Compounding
Sixth graders examine the concept of compounding interest on invested money. They explore how much interest their money would earn through compounded interest. Students conclude that they should invest early and often.
Curated OER
Feel Your Way!
Young scholars investigate the sense of touch as they examine the texture of items in the classroom and from their homes. They watch a computer based video about the senses and draw items that are rough, smooth, soft, and hard.
Curated OER
Traveling Bowls
Students investigate the relationship between force and motion while conducting an experiment to answer the question,"How do objects move?". In small groups, they predict how many washers are needed to pull a bowl across a finish line.
