A guest visitor surprised the science room this week

One of our students brought in "Mr. Pickles", the pet snake, and we introduced him to another students pet, "Peaches".

animal cover pages

This week in the science wing, the 10th agers will be working on their animal projects, while completing their cover page at home.

Crust, Mantle, and Core

The girls of 9-B enjoyed a treat in class today.  While discussing the parts of the Earth, one student made a pie to share with all!

Check out the eighth age boys hard at work on their "shoebox" habitats!

10th age animal projects

The tenth agers are hard at work writing a report, and then creating a Prezi on their animal project.

worm dissection

Eighth Age Camoflauge

The eighth agers have been busy "hiding" butterflies around the science room!

Eighth age animals

This week in class, the 8th agers have classified animals into many different categories!

A visit from Mrs. Hannah

This week in tenth age, we had a special visitor, Mrs. Hannah.  She taught us all about our brain cells!

Cells cells, cells

This week in 10th age, the students learned all about cells.  Be sure to ask them about some of the unique structures as they finish up their plant cell drawings for homework.

Ninth Age Celery Experiment

During ninth age science, the boys and girls got the chance to use the "scientific method".  Check out our "before, and after" celery.  Many hypotheses were correct!

Eighth age dissection

This week, the 8th agers dissected lima bean seeds.  It was a lot of fun to find the embryo!

Ninth age microscopes

Throughout the week, the ninth agers have enjoyed looking at many different things under the microscopes!

This week in class, the tenth agers had the opportunity to predict, create, and measure craters!

Currently in the 8th Age, our "scientists" had a frog race while measuring in centimeters.  It was a lot of fun to observe the red frog and green frog race down the meter sticks for our timed experiment.

Welcome Back!

I am very excited to see all of my "fungis" and "fun-girls" back in the science room for another year of fizzling, popping, oozing, and slimy excitement.
