This week in science we learned about ramps. We learned that a ramp is an incline plane which things can travel up and down on easier. The students were placed in two groups and were given various items to test on the ramp. We placed the ramp at different inclines and tested to see if the item would slide down the ramp. It was so great to see how the groups worked together and decided who would test each item and the order they would test. It's so nice to see five and six year old children problem solve on their own and work together as a team! We had so much fun testing each object! Some moved super fast on the steep incline!
What makes a good friend? Just ask the HCA Kindergarten class! Using our Montessori Movable Alphabet, the students wrote sentences phonetically sharing what they believe makes a good friend!
