We made new friends from Russia today. They speak Russian, French, and English.
Also they use celsius as their measurement for temperature. They have some of the same foods that we do. They have pizza and Snickers. Some of the books they talked about we have never heard of before, but they sound interesting. We finished up by making paper airplanes and watching videos. One was about a new space movie that is coming out in Russia and one was about NASA. We had a friendly competition of whose paper plane could fly the farthest. So to conclude, we had a lot of fun taking with them. - Alyssa 6th grade
On In and Out Burger night I helped Ms Mickle and Ms Weesner to set up MakeyMakey and littleBits. Makey makey is a fun. You create a circuit using various objects that are conductive. When you create the circuit you can play fun games! Another thing that I helped with was littleBits. littleBits are a little different than MakeyMakey. You still create a circuit but the power source is a battery. Also in littleBits you create a circuit and try to make the fan, buzzer, or motor to work. I helped by teaching people how these two different things worked. There were also more fun things like Hour of Code, paper airplanes, and paper airplane launchers. I had lots of fun helping and playing. I hope that we do something like this again. JP - 6th grade
