Balance and Motion

We have started a new science unit about balance and motion.  We learned today that something is balanced if it has equal weight on both sides.  We tried balancing on one foot and we talked about how holding our arms out can help distribute the weight and make balancing easier.  We then tried balancing cardboard "crayfish" on our fingers.  We even added clothespins as counterweights.  Here are some photos from our explorations.
