Partin Settlement Elementary School
Tumbleson's "Einstein Hour" uses hands-on materials and science experiments to create a positive learning environment and build community, compassion and character development in the school. Students from third, fourth and fifth grades are paired together to help each other understand the physical, life and earth sciences. They are given materials and a question about the concept of that day and help each other describe the processes used to find the answer and complete their science logs.
