We've been working on researching and building earthquake resistant buildings.

Here is a reminder of the criteria. 

Earthquake Resistant Building

(to be done either individually, pairs or threes)

Your project consists of 2 parts:

Part 1 (in paragraphs):

-       Research what makes buildings earthquake resistant.  Share examples of famous buildings that have these characteristics.

-       Explain which characteristic you incorporated into your building to make it earthquake resistant. 

Part 2 (the model)

-       Build a model according to the specifications set out in the handout given to you.  The lego person needs to survive the shaking on the classroom’s shaker table in order to be considered a success.  You choose where to position the person.  I choose which direction the person faces.  Please review the guidelines in the handout given to you. Adults can help you with any cutting or sharp objects.  You should be doing the building yourself or with your group. This is not a project for your family. 

Due to date to share your findings and to test your structure: April 1^st.

Reminders:

• READ 
• research for Science
• Math 6 #1-3 workbook
• Math 7 page 188 #1-4

https://www.globalschoolplayday.com/

A video on why play is important:

Many classes at our school will be participating in this day of play.  Your child is encouraged to bring a non-electronic toy to play with and to share.  Remember to leave valuables at home.  This will be an interesting day to see how students are able to play together without adult organization and create plans and resolve differences without adult intervention.  Students will be expected to follow school safety guidelines.
