Air -First Grade
In first grade science, we are learning all about Air. The students have explored air using several different materials such as a feather, balloon, a straw, vials, syringes, and tubing. Through these different investigations, the students have discovered that air can take up space and can be compressed, and that air can push objects around. During this unit, the students have also constructed and observed a parachute dropping through the air. We are hoping for nice weather soon to test our parachutes outside!
