Our 4/5th grade students didn’t let a little rain stop them from having a great time while on their field trip at Point Defiance Zoo and Owen’s Beach.

First grade used the Engineering Design Process to design playground structures that protect kids from UV rays. They have studied the patterns of the sun, moon, and stars and applied what they learned about the patterns of the sun to design their playgrounds. They researched playground structures ...in their community and discussed what kinds of structures had good designs for protecting kids from UV rays. You can see a lot of what they learned in their designs. They tested their designs using UV beads to detect UV rays. Next week, they will look at the strengths and weaknesses of their designs to improve them.
