Science and Math Fun with 4th Grade

The second grade girls had a treat this week...but it wasn't the kind that you eat.  They were visited by the fourth grade girls who had made original electronic math games in their science class.  One or two second graders worked with each fourth grader to play the games, which required them to do addition or subtraction problems. When a circuit containing a light bulb was used to connect the problem with the correct answer, the bulb lit up.  The fourth graders demonstrated their knowledge of electric circuits and the second graders showed that they knew their math facts.  The rooms were bright with shining bulbs and smiling faces!
