Craters
Today we investigated craters! We were trying to determine what causes some craters on the moon to be larger than others. The kids hypothesized that a larger object hitting the moon would make a bigger crater. They also thought if the object came from further away, it would have more force and therefore make a larger crater. We made the surface of the moon out of flour and cocoa and then tested out our hypotheses.
Balancing Robots
We worked with our buddies to make robots that balance on our fingers, nose and other body parts.
