Leverett School Grade 1 Joyful Learning For Young Children 

We just started a new science unit on Light and Sound.  The children spent some time designing an instrument that would make sound.  Then they shared their work with the class.

Today we continued by doing some experiments that showed how vibrations can make sound and how they can make objects move.

In computer lab, Mrs. Gravina challenged us to work with a partner to build a car that can move down a ramp.  We will race them next week!  Lots of fun building challenges in the past couple weeks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For the past two weeks we have been reading and writing about people who have worked for justice.  The kids have had some wonderful, thoughtful conversations together about fairness and justice.  This week each child chose one person to create a picture of.  They are hanging on our bulletin board along with all the writing we’ve done.  Make sure you check it out when you come in for conferences this week or next week!
