Kindergarten has been using the AMSTI Balls and Ramps investigation for several years, but this year Matson's class added a key component. In addition to spotlighting the fastest ball, the smallest ball, the largest ball, etc..., they had discussions. WHY was the fastest ball fastest? HOW could one be blown forward with air through a straw when none of the others would move? WHAT would each student do differently if he/she could redesign? #STEM
