    I loved learning about how energy can not be destroyed or created, but it can change to different types of energy! :)

    This energy websurf was so fun/ awesome. I learned that mechanical energy is in a lot of things steam locomotive,alarm clock,solar car, hand crank generator and pot of boiling water.

    I learned that light energy is also called radient energy. I also learned what a hand-cranked generater is. (Now there are much easier ways to make things go/work.)

    While I did this websurf I discovered that all of the examples they had on the website had to have mechanical energy to be able to work. I also uncovered that a bullet is an example of kinetic energy. I really enjoyed doing this because it was awesome to learn and uncover that there is some really cool things that involve energy,for example a bullet. I had no idea of this because I thought what ever it got shot out of had all of the energy that apparently it goes to the bullet from the gun!

    I enjoyed learning that energy can't be created, neither destroyed. But off of that, why then do we have energy today if it can't be created? Did it branch from dark matter? That is what makes science so fun!! ;p

  39. RaquelJanuary 27, 2015 at 7:29 PM

    In this amazing/awesome Web Surf, I discovered that Light Energy is also called Radiant energy and that they both help you see. Another thing I learned is that there are cars that get solar energy from the sun which I found interesting and strange. I really enjoyed this Web Surf and hope that we can do another one again, really soon! I mean it!!!!!

Scavenger Hunt: Communities & Heritage

By
*Parents, this is an in-class assignment. :) Hello, citizens of SBLC! Today, you are going on a scavenger hunt with your partner to explore some of the communities you belong to and the heritage of our state. Remember to treat each other the way we agreed in our SBLC Constitution and--this is VERY important-- read the directions under YOUR grade level!  And of course...have fun! :) *2nd Grade: Our Communities Directions : 1. Add Scavenger Hunt to the Table of Contents in your Social Studies Notebook. Turn to the the next clean page to record your answers. 2. Use the link below each question to find your answers. Record your answers in complete sentences! 3. If you finish early, post a comment with your favorite fact. Then, explore the websites to discover other interesting facts. :) Example : (click on the picture to make it bigger) 1. School The SBLC is a part of  _____________ Elementary. Our school was named after ___________ . http://www.ki...
