A visit from the Math Science Innovation Center
On Wednesday the Math Science Innovation Center visited for a lesson. We got to investigate the power of the wind with the help of Curious George and use this renewable energy source to power a vehicle. In this lesson, students will predict how different materials and shapes catch the wind as sails and use the design process to build and test the sails of their own wind-powered vehicles.
Career Day at Hopkins!
Today we had the Chesterfield County Public Schools Web Developer/Artist, the Costume Shop Manager from Richmond Ballet, the Richmond Police Deputy Chief, and Bellwood Federal Credit Union join us for Career Day. We also dressed up like what we want to be when we grow up. Be on the lookout for our Career Day photo story narrated by us!
