Robotic Friends, Pomander Balls, Snowflake Inspection

3rd grade students moving cups by way of programming symbols.

Students are creating a No Magnet Motor using a 1.5 battery,copper wire, 2 safety pins,rubber bands and a sewing machine bobbin.

Duplicating a pomander ball that was used during the Shakespearean times to ward off evil smells, students poked an orange with gloves then  added cinnamon, all-spice and pumpkin spice. The room smells heavenly!

M&M challenge. Students read in a book that you could tell the difference between the flavors of different colored M&M's. So, to test their theory we developed our own experiment...... Consensus, you can't!
