A big congrats to our main event winners this week!

The third-grade students have been studying the force of gravity this week! They experimented with the speed items fall to Earth, how they are affected by the air around them, and how they react when they fall. They loved it! They had to make predictions about each object, observe it falling, and record the result and why the item reacted the way it did.
