First grade investigated apples this week. They read different nonfiction stories to collect facts and topped the week off with cool STEM projects. In Miss Pauling's room they learned about chemical reactions and made apple volcanoes. In Mrs. Seibert's room they learned about different 3-Dimensional shapes. Then, they used apple pieces and toothpicks to make structures. In Mrs. Page's room they created functional baskets to carry an apple. The kiddos loved working with each teacher!
