Skating at Cairns Arena

We had a wonderful field trip to Cairns Arena on Friday. Thank you to our great chaperones, Eric Sandy, Bob and Angela Halsted, Laura Merena, Mark Redmond, Beth Novotny, and Marcy Shelden. For many students, this was their first skating experience. Students persevered and really supported each other. Each group took some time with their chaperones to explore Newton's Three Laws and how they applied to our skating experience. In addition, everyone had a chance to do 'three speed test trials' as part of our experiment testing, 'does mass affect speed?". We will be using this information and analyzing it later this week on spreadsheet. Thank you for supporting another great learning opportunity.
