Astronaut Pudding

My students are great this year! We read about space this week in our reading textbook. At the end of the week, I told the kids we were going to be like astronauts and eat pudding. We made pudding the way an astronaut might receive it on a space shuttle.

Boats and STEM

This week my students have been working on a STEM boat project. We had been talking about absorbency. The goal of this project was the students would design, build, and test a boat. They had several opportunities during the week to make changes. The only catch was they were given so much money to spend, as when they were broke. That was it. Some of the boats turned out really amazing, and they held a lot of weight. Then some boats sank immediately.
