Testing Materials and Designs

April 15th

We have started our new unit in Science, Testing Materials and Designs.  Today we were looking and a variety of building materials that we will be using for this unit.  Students were to examine each of the materials; describe the properties and list how they might be useful for building.

Here is a collage of the students busy at work.
