The children have been investigating ramps and trajectory in class. Mentor Teacher, Kirsten, shared some documentation from the classroom work.

She then shared a video of how she assembled her home ramps as well as a list of other possible materials and a series of questions for families to ask while their children play.
The teaching team of Room 6 then invited the children and families in their class to join them for a "virtual playdate".
Following the playdate, the team of Room 6 met (virtually) to unpack their observations and develop strategies for refining these virtual gatherings. One point they discussed was the power of gathering in small groups, rather than as a whole class, just as we wouldn't expect an entire class to come together in one physical space.
These experiences will be repeated and refined, just as we do with face-to-face learning.
