Collecting Research

A few weeks ago the kids and I wanted to head downtown to the downtown public library. We figured since we would be downtown we should take the chance to do a project! The researcher in me took over and I suggested we study the height of buildings. The kids made predictions of how many floors they thought the highest building we found would have. They also predicted of the 10 buildings we would look at, how many would have atleast 10 or more floors. We brought a clipboard downtown with our data collection sheet and off we went!

Lots of window counting! 

Jack did all the writing and drawing in the poster board! He had good practice writing his numbers and learned how to draw a graph. They also learned how to read a graph and present their results 

It was a great learning experience for us all! Made me think outside the box on how many things I can turn into a fun lesson! More research to come from the March clan!
