Discovery Place

We had an amazing day with this great crew at Discovery Place!  We began with a computer programming class where students set their robots to accomplish various challenges and follow their commands!  In our catapults class, we learned about the laws of motion and got to design our own launching devices.  Exploring the museum, students were able to explore many simple machines in the Cool Stuff lab.  They also had the chance to experience virtual reality, learn some ancient history, and get their hands wet in the aquarium.  They were all impressed with the IMAX experience which fit perfectly with our archaeology focus from earlier in the year.  They also enjoyed the live performance of "Zapped"  where they got to meet Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla and learn about their inventions in the field of electric current.
