Welcome to Mr. E's 5th Grade Math/Science
Weekly UpdateOn May 2nd we went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The field trip was the best going to! We got to walk around the museum and see awesome things from the history of Rock and Roll like Michael Jackson’s glove. We got to learn more music that we did not know. The other thing was that hip hop was originally in the Bronx. When you think of hip hop it is not the same as rap it is different when you think of rap you think of MCs. When you think of hip hop you think mcs, graffiti, and more. It was really fun going there.
-Edyn Goscinski The other students and I are working on the Dust Bowl. The Dust Bowl happened during the Great Depression. The Great Depression happened after the stock market was falling. The Dust Bowl’s other name was the Black Blizzard or the Dirty Thirties. The Dust Bowl was bad some moved and some did not. We learned about the causes of the Dust Bowl and what farmers are doing now to prevent the Dust Bowl from happening again. We learned that farmers are creating nutrient rich topsoil and using irrigation to help prevent another Dust Bowl. I hope the Dust Bowl will ever happen again. -Edyn Goscinski STEM Club
This week in STEM Club we were building animals out of Legos. It involved teamwork and imagination. The animal my team and I made was a cheetah which was a lot of fun .We had to draw out the blueprints first. Next you had to discuss what animal we were going to make then we had to look up facts about that animal. Finally we made an animal and had to answer all the questions. And that is what we did. -Logan Goodman |
