Our first investigation in our Balance and Motion science unit helps students explore concepts of balance. Students have been using clothespins to find as many different ways as they can to balance a paper "crayfish." Students are learning to use words like balance, counterbalance, weight, counterweight, stable, and unstable. Students record their experiments and diagrams in their science journals, along with why they think their method of balancing the crayfish worked (or didn't!).
