Community Bible Fellowship Christian School values hands on experiences for all students and seeks opportunities to learn outside of the classroom. This fall has provided great opportunity to take advantage of that, despite working around the crazy, fall weather. <\/p>\n

The Gr.5\/6 class, led by their teacher Mark Johnston, took a hike up to Copernicus Hill this fall to observe the changing fall season, support their science unit on the \u201cdiversity of living things\u201d and get some exercise away from the school grounds. The students were given the option to climb the tower for the premium view, and nearly all students chose to take full advantage of that. <\/p>\n

\nA few weeks later, that same class had the privilege of experiencing \u201cflight\u201d first hand! The class had been studying \u201cflight\u201d in science class. Mr. Johnston coordinated with Dr. Andy Maxwell who gave the class a hands-on lesson on flight, providing the class a ride in his airplane. The students went up in groups of 3 with the student in front even getting to steer the plane. No one got sick! <\/p>\n

They discussed the 4 forces acting on the plane and how the plane can achieve lift through Bernoulli\u2019s Principle, after getting to see and tour that plane. The students had been challenged to make a model airplane as a home assignment. They tested their model airplanes while waiting for their turn on the plane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
