Frost Rocks! Puppet Show Video! Grades 1-3

Grades 1-3 created  videos starring their very own puppets.  There were all kinds of ideas and scenes: in the science lab, at lunch, in the gym, reading, doing math and many other Frost activities.  We used some of our ideas and videos to enter a contest entitled:  Texas Public Schools Rock!  After quite a bit of editing (Video could only be 2 minutes long!) this was our final product.  I wish I could have put more puppets in the actual entry; everyone contributed their great ideas about how Frost Rocks!

3rd Grade: Ms. Pina Class and Jacques Cousteau

3rd Grade is studying Jacque Cousteau and how he brought the undersea world into the homes of many people who had never seen the fantastic creatures who lived there!  We studied the marine animals and learned to say their names in French.  Google translator helped us learn a few more marine names like shell (coquille-which kind of sounds like cookie!) and shrimp (crevette).  We researched some of the most interesting undersea life on an app called Educreations.  Here are some of our Presentations:

1st Grade and Jacque Cousteau

1st Grade has been super busy learning about Jacque Cousteau and his life of undersea adventure.  We couldn't learn about Cousteau's life and ignore all the marine animals brought to life by his underwater cameras.  We studied marine animals and learned how to say their names in French like Cousteau!  Please excuse our accents.  We are just beginners!

4th Grade Straw Rockets & Space Shuttle Challenge Pix

 4th Grade continues flight tests with their straw rockets.  Recently we learned about velocity (how long {range}a flight is and how much time it takes to make the flight) and which launch angle produced the greatest velocity.  We tested 6 different launch angles:  15, 30, 45, 60,75, and 90 degrees.  We found 15%
