Our first few days back in science have been all about setting up the foundation for a great year!
After going over classroom expectations and routines, each class spent some time participating in team-building challenges focused on communication, cooperation, problem-solving, and working together toward a common goal.
Taking time for this at the beginning of the year is so important. Science isn't always about working independently from a textbook—throughout the year, students will be completing labs, investigations, projects, and other hands-on activities where they will need to communicate clearly, listen to one another, share ideas, solve problems, and sometimes work through a little frustration together!
These first few days also give students a chance to get comfortable with their classmates, build relationships, and learn that our science classroom is a place where it's okay to try something, make a mistake, adjust, and try again. Those are some pretty important skills for scientists, and for life!
We had lots of laughs along the way, and it was a great way to kick off the school year. 🔬🧬🌎⚗️
Now we're ready to dive into some science!

Our 7th grade Life Science students completed an Ecosystem Survival Investigation Project, where they explored how living organisms interact with their environment and what species need to survive. Students investigated limiting factors, food webs, habitats, and ecosystem balance while creating solutions for survival challenges.
Our 8th grade Earth Science students finished the year by diving into the Solar System through a research project focused on planets and other celestial objects. Students created models and researched unique characteristics, space exploration missions, atmospheres, temperatures, moons, and more!
So proud of the hard work, creativity, and scientific thinking these students showed throughout their projects this year! 🚀🌱
