Mrs. Zepeda's 4th-grade class just completed an engaging science experiment filled with fun and learning! The students designed their very own amusement park rides, called "The Twisto-matic." They then challenged themselves by testing these creations in various ways to enhance the excitement and discover the science behind thrill rides!
