I hope every had a great fall break!  This week we are going to continue working with our simple machines.

On Monday/Tuesday we will be building hockey players!  Our hockey players will have gears that make the hockey stick hit the puck!  We will test out different pucks to see what goes the farthest.

On Friday Ms. Sarah will be your sub, I will be attending the iPad Conference so I can learn about the fun ways other schools are using iPads!  On Friday you will be building a dog who's eyes move when you use the gears.  Try to figure out how you can change the gears to change the way the eyes move!
