Vibrobots!

Fourth graders really had an "educationally amusing" challenge! We definitely had to have a growth mindset by figuring out what wouldn't work in order to get things to work! After all, we are hear to learn from our attempts! Students engineered robots out of some basic materials. The question this science experiment asked was "How does changing the counterweight on the motor effect the performance of the robot?" Most predicted a balanced weight (3 cm) would create the best performance (art). Watch the robot performances as they create art with the counterbalance at 1 cm, 3 cm, and 5.5 cm.

The OREO Caper

Wow! Today 3rd graders got a chance to put their sleuth skills to the test in order to solve this real-life mystery! Someone stole our OREOs! Check out their adventure!

Fish Eggs Hatch!

5th graders predicted the hatch date of our rainbow trout eggs (based on mathematical calculations). And they were RIGHT! Fish started hatching on Jan. 28! Check out the time-lapse video to see them hatch. As of Friday, approximately 6 of 60 fish have hatched.

Mystery Microscopes

This week third graders got started on our Sleuth unit. They made observations and revealed clues to make inferences.

Fred's Swimming Lessons

Fred wants to be ready if there is ever another emergency. His next adventure. . . Swimming Lessons! Watch our class as we use the scientific method and data to draw conclusions and make decisions. Should Fred take lessons in freshwater or the ocean?

Squid Dissection!

Students got an up-close view of an ocean species today during our squid dissections. Check out the fun video.

Save Fred!!

Poor Fred (the gummy worm) didn't put his life preserver on when sailing the ocean blue! Now his boat has capsized! Our third graders used the scientific method to save the day. Check out Fred's wild adventure.

Fish Eyes!

Students went "fishing" in the deep today while exploring animal adaptations and how the light spectrum changes in water. Check out our Fish-eyed students during this science experiment.
