These Sneakers Were Made for Walking...

...and that's just what they did.  We had a beautiful day for the Walk-a-Thon.  The Third Graders had a great time walking and raising money for our school.  We finished it up with a popsicle followed by Recess, Lunch, and our THIRD Link Party!

Today in Science, the Third Graders built paper cup telephones to investigate the connection between sounds and vibration.  Each student connected his or her telephone to another student's telephone to communicate with one another from about 12 feet away.  Students took turns to be the "Voice" and "Ears."  The "Voice" would talk into the telephone and say a mystery number between 1 and 5.  The "Ears" listened through the cup and held up fingers to represent the mystery number that was heard.  The "Voice" then affirmed or corrected the "Ears."  It sure sounded  like a fun time!
