F.O.S.S. Science

As part of the Science curriculum at our school, we use a program called F.O.S.S. (Full Option Science System) which correlates with our Science text.  This particular unit of study is on Water.  The investigation for the students was to invent and create a working waterwheel based on the materials provided.  By "working" it had to be able to lift objects.  Of course the kids had so much fun creating their designs and constructing their waterwheels!
