The art of time! Humans have always been trying to find ways to measure time, from hour glasses to Big Ben to Swatch Watches. After they look at a variety of time pieces they will create their own "grandfather clock", complete with moving hands and a mouse to run up and down when it "strikes" the hour.

Now that we have made a variety of "things that go" we will create an environment for them. What do we see at the side of the road? Using chalk and a very long piece of sidewalk students will draw the road and all the things they see when they look out of their car windows. Then they will have fun driving their "vehicles" along the road. Thanks to parents for all the great boxes they donated for this project.
