Foundations and Beams

Tomorrow is pajama day at Beddington Heights - students have earned this day through their work and play.

We wrapped up our work with perimeter by using a combination of Lego blocks to build rectangles with a given perimeter.  101 uses for Lego!!

We finished Book the First in the Tale of Despereaux and once again we are horrified about the way Despereaux's family treat him and the prospects of being in a dungeon.

Our next lesson in science has us looking at foundations and beams.  Please take the time to show your student the foundation of the house (most have assured me they don't have a foundation) and any exposed beams there may be in the structure.  This is a great hands on unit for parents out there that are in the construction business.
