Jumped from an “F” to a “C” state rating in one year’s time; 92% Free and Reduced Lunch population In 2016, we received a letter from Governor Scott for achieving the top 10% statewide of all schools, all elementary schools, and all Title I schools in improvement in ELA and Math proficiency In 2018, our 5th grade science proficiency on the Florida SSA reached 70% proficiency, an increase of 23%, 5th grade FSA math increased by 9% and FSA reading increased by 21% Within our first five years of being a magnet school, we have been named a Magnet School of Distinction by the Magnet Schools of America in 2017 and 2018
Hamilton at a Glance
Fourth Grader, Julian explains his group’s engineered design for saving Florida’s Beaches.
- What is gravity?
- How do the forces of gravity effect Humpty
Dumpty when he falls off of the wall?
- Can I create a structure to protect Humpty
Dumpty?
- Science:
Using the Engineering Design Process, design and build a fun, fast, and safe working roller coaster using force and motion.
- Math:
Calculate elapsed time of each trial and determine your average speed.
- ELA:
Write what you learned about how forces effect the motion of the marble.
It’s Your Turn! Roller Coaster Challenge
It’s Your Turn! Roller Coaster Challenge
Challenge: You are part of a civil engineering company asked to submit a design for the next great roller coaster at Busch
- Gardens. Your coaster should be fast, fun, and safe.
Design Constraints
The track must be free-standing; you cannot hold it up or in place. The car (marble) must make it from beginning to end for 5 consecutive trials. The track must include at least 1 loop and 1 turn. The car (marble) must land in or knock over the cup at the end. Materials 2 lengths of pipe insulation, construction paper, 1 marble, masking tape, cup, stopwatch
Plan
How will you use the materials provided to design a roller coaster that is fast, fun, and safe?
