Hip Hop meets the classroom

 If you were at OLHMS this week, you might have seen Sir Isaac Newton dancing to the tune of "Every ACTION…there's a REACTION"!

On Tuesday, November 12, students learned about Sir Isaac Newton and the three laws of motion during an action-packed show from Honeywell and NASA called FMA Live!  This award-winning show uses hip-hop music, dance and audience participation to teach the basic principles of physics.

The show features videos with a modern-aged Sir Isaac Newton, who explains how the laws of motion are used everyday.  Students then get a piece of the action and test the laws of motion!
