Update: 5th Grade Engineers

5th grade engineers have continued working on their recycled simple machine playgrounds. Their task today was:

OUR GOAL TODAY

1) Make sure all playground structures are simple machines

2) Label all playground structures with both their simple machine name as well as their playground name on a notecard. 

3) On the same notecard write a short sentence about how that particular simple machine works.

Notecards must be taped to the structures!

5th Grade Engineers at Work

Students were so excited about their playgrounds that they continued working on them during their recess! Please ask your 5th grade student which simple machine they were in charge of making for their playground!
