Our 8th grade Science teachers have been going above and beyond to help students prepare for their state assessment on May 19th 🔬📅
Mrs. Crossan and Mrs. Skerven collaborated to create engaging station review activities designed to reinforce key science concepts in an interactive way. Students rotated through multiple stations in both classrooms—and even extended their learning into the connecting science lab 🧪🏫
These stations gave students the opportunity to review content, collaborate with peers, and strengthen their understanding through hands-on learning and active engagement 💡🤝
We are proud of the intentional planning and teamwork our teachers are putting in to support student success! 🌟

💪🔬 Science in Action in Mrs. Montes’s Class! 🔬💪
Mrs. Montes’s students put their thinking to the test with an exciting Tug-of-War experiment! 🪢
As part of SC.6.P.13.1, students explored different types of forces and worked toward their learning target:
👉 understanding the relationship between mass, strength, and force.
Their challenge?
Design the ultimate Tug-of-War team! 🤔 Students developed hypotheses, tested their ideas, and analyzed their results to see what really makes a team strong.
From teamwork to critical thinking, this hands-on activity brought science to life in the best way! 👏
