We are "falling in love" with simple machines!  The kids have been studying the 6 simple machines during science for the last week, and we are continuing our study even further this week.

 

***Using this knowledge, each child will construct a Valentine Trap using at least 3 simple machines. The traps are an AT HOME project, and should NOT cost any (or minimal) money, depending on the design you and your child come up with. The projects are due on or before Wednesday, February 13.

 

***Please see the document attached to my email message today for further instructions. (The following pictures are an example of a finished Valentine Trap from a previous year-please use it as inspiration, but do not allow your child to make an exact replica of the project provided as an example!)
