Our 4th graders learned the science behind how kites fly! Students explored the four forces needed for successful flight (lift, drag, tension, and weight) just like airplanes use. ✈️ Then, they designed and built their own bird kites and put them to the test! What a fun way to bring science to life! 💙🐾












A huge thank you to our community partner, Jersey Mike’s Subs, for visiting our school today and delivering cards for free subs to our teachers, staff, and students! Our Cubs were so excited and enjoyed talking with the representatives. We are so thankful for our amazing community partners and look forward to more opportunities to work together in the future! 🐾✨
