In class we currently have a Museo kit (Artifacts) from the Glenbow museum. We are looking at the lives of our first nation peoples who lived in Alberta. We are discovering the different ways they were able to use their environment and live off the land for thousands of years. We are beginning to see the impact of the fur trade and early settlement and how that impacted the blackfoot way of life. Please encourage your child to tell you about what they know and even better deepen their understanding by checking out this great website: GLENBOW BLACKFOOT

What Is A Lever? A  lever  is a simple  machine  consisting of a bar that rotates around a fixed point. The fixed point of a lever is called the fulcrum. Like other machines, a lever makes work easier by changing the force applied to the machine or the  distance  over which the force is applied. Classes of Levers Other levers change force or  distance  in different ways than a hammer removing a nail. How a lever changes force or distance depends on the  location  of the input and output forces relative to the fulcrum. The input force is the force applied by the user to the lever. The output force is the force applied by the lever to the object. Based on the location of input and output forces, there are three basic types of levers, called first-class, second-class, and third-class levers.  Classes of Levers Class of Lever Example of Lever in This Class Location of Input & Output Forces & Fulcrum* Ideal Mechanical Advantage Change in Direction of Force?
