Friction

Posted Date: 11/07/2024

Capitol Elementary 4th-Graders in Mrs. Clara Sanders' Science Classes are finishing up a massive unit on friction. They have been working for a while, learning all the aspects of how friction slows movement down. They have experimented outside too, learning how the energy of a moving object is affected. They now know what causes friction and what doesn't, how objects are slowed down and what makes them go faster. Today these science engineers reviewed all aspects of friction in the dark while using flashlights. Students could only crawl on their knees, which was an out-of-the-box concept that showed how friction slows them down! Mrs. Sanders, students will never forget this lesson about friction! Thank you for #expectingexcellence!
