The Great Cup Collapse of 6th Grade!

(8/22): Today in science, sixth grade students put Sir Isaac Newton’s first law of motion to the ultimate test with our Inertia Towers Challenge. Using stacks of cups, note cards, and a little teamwork, students discovered that objects at rest really do like to stay at rest—until someone yanks a card out from under them!
From slow-motion suspense to epic cup crashes, every group learned how balance, motion, and gravity teamed up to create some dramatic (and hilarious) results. Newton may have lived in the 1600s, but his science definitely rocked our classroom today!
