Hyde Park Elementary Science Inspires Creativity and Learning
At Hyde Park Elementary this month, the 5th graders took part in a wonderful hands-on science experiment making model roller coasters. Mrs. Flores stated, “The students were engaged in scientific inquiry to learn about energy in its various forms. Each team made a model roller coaster and observed how the speed of the marble changes as it goes up and down the roller coaster tracks and how energy changes from kinetic to potential and vice versa. These hands-on activities enhance learning by reinforcing cognitive knowledge and allowing students to develop greater curiosity on the subject matter.”
