Science Connections

Fifth Graders are enjoying the Titanic Game that Mrs. Schroeder lent us.

Mrs. Moffitt did a great job teaching Science related to our student of the Titanic.  She used the curriculum from TitanicScience Teachers Handbooks (see below)

Students spent several weeks studying Buoyancy and Water Displacement and several weeks plotting icebergs.
