Potential vs Kinetic Energy

Designing a paper plane is a tricky process if you wish to beat your classmates in a paper plane flying contest. There are many designs to consider and throwing techniques.  What has worked best for you?

What is potential energy?  What stage of paper plane making demonstrates potential energy? When does potential energy change into kinetic energy?

What kind of energy do you use to make the plane fly??

Carnivalito and Kahoot with our buddies in Room 14

Every week Rooms 14 and 15 get together to share some time with one another.  Room 14 has students who are year 1 or 2.  They are lucky enough to have the wonderful Mrs Chester for their teacher.

Sometimes we sing songs or read or engage in an activity.  Once we even went to see a play called Dexter's Deep Sea Discovery at Tapac.  This week Room 14 taught us a dance called Carnivalito.  We are going to perform it for our assembly next Friday.

After our assembly and dance practice, Room 15 helped Room 14 do their first ever Kahoot quiz.   The quiz was all about the Farming unit we've all been studying.  It was so much fun, we hope to do it again really soon.

Our Buddies

Our buddies are in Room 14 with Mrs Chester and Mrs McIntyre. They are the best buddies ever! We do A LOT of stuff with them because they are just too cool! Check them out!

Reading with our buddies

Each week Room 15 tries to get together with rooms 14 and 18.  Sometimes we sing songs, sometimes we do art and sometimes we read together.
