JR. LEGO ROBOTICS: SIMPLE MACHINES UNITED (AGES 4-7)

DESIGN AND “RIDE” YOUR OWN ROLLER COASTERS (AGES 7–10)

We use simple machines every day, but many times without even recognizing them. In Junior Robotics: Simple Machines United, students will explore the basic concepts of simple machines and how we use them to achieve even our most grandiose goals! Students will use LEGO® WeDo™ construction and resource kits to produce new builds that will be used to create Kelvin’s Amusement Park.

You will build roller coasters with different kinds of speeds, cars, loops, etc. You will experience what it feels like to ride in your coasters and to watch the rides from outside. What will happen if the speed in a specific curve is too fast? What if the ride needs more speed or a different type of car to get up a steep part of the ride?

What do you want the scenery around your ride to look like?

MIRACLE LEAGUE PLANS IMPROVEMENTS AT

THE MUNICIPAL PARK PLAYGROUND The Miracle League of Northampton Township PA and Northampton Township have embarked on a new journey which involves making improvements to the already popular playground at the Municipal Park on Hatboro and Bristol Roads in Churchville. The mission of The Miracle League of Northampton Township PA, a nonprofit organization, is to enrich the community by providing education and social development through high quality recreation facilities and programs for individuals

with special needs and their families.

In April 2012, the community celebrated the grand

opening of a baseball field and a multi-purpose field both uniquely designed with

$30,00

special playing surfaces. The fields are located in the Municipal Park, adjacent to the softball fields that are used by the Northampton Girls Softball Association. This location helps create a feeling of inclusion for Miracle League athletes, who enjoy participating in a sport just like every other kid.

This all volunteer organization once again is ready to make a miracle happen and create an all-inclusive playground by enhancing the existing playground at the Northampton Township Municipal Park. Working with Landscape Structures, playground experts in Inclusive Play, the Miracle League Board of Directors has strategically planned improvements that will welcome children and families of all abilities to learn, play and grow together.

Northampton Township applied for and received a $270,500 grant from the PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Community Conservation Partnership Program and another $50,000 grant from the Department of Community Economic Development to assist in the funding of this $500,000+ project. The remainder of the funds will be matched through fundraising efforts.

If you would like additional information and a list of all the equipment planned for the playground or are interested in making a donation to support

the purchase and installation of new equipment so that children can play together without experiencing physical or social barriers visit the website at www.miracleleaguenhpa.org, or mail a check to Miracle League of Northampton Township PA P.O. Box 453 Richboro, PA 18954-0453.

Questions? Call Nancy Opalka, Director of Parks and Recreation at 215-357-6800.

A miracle is often considered an extraordinary event in human affairs; a league is an association of persons brought together by a common interest, goal or cause. By definition the Miracle League is an association of people brought together to take part in extraordinary events in human affairs. This rationale rings true when speaking of the Miracle League of Northampton Township, PA. 35
