At the beginning of Starbase the students took a pre-test and had a class average of 49%. On the post test, the class average was 89%!

Starbase Day 4- Rocket Launch

This past Tuesday students completed Day 4 of Starbase. The highlight of the day was Rocket Launch. Thanks to those of you who came out to watch. It was very entertaining to say the least.

Team T-Shirts

We had a great day today. We began with t-shirt making and followed with multiple rounds of hide and seek at Mills River before returning for a team lunch and a 'dessert potluck'! It was all a wonderful way to honor the efforts of our students during the first trimester.

Flying Kites

We finally flew our kites yesterday! The kites were built after we read the book 'All of the Above' last spring. The kites' structure is similar to the structure referred to in the book. This was a class read.

Starbase Day 3

Today we launch rockets at school...1:00 pm You are welcome to attend. Students loved working with the robots on Day 3 and setting up their rockets.
