Anastazi Tribe

Students conducted research on ipads to learn about the Anastazi tribe.  After they researched, students used soil, straw and water to create bricks, like the Anastazi people did.

Egg Experiment

In science, we did an experiment to see what happens to an egg if you put it in vinegar.  Students went through the stages of the scientific method and developed a hypothesis to see what happened.
 

Marshmellow Science Experiment

We learned about the scientific method by doing the marshmellow science experiment.  In this experiment, we went through the stages of the scientific method and developed an experiment to find what happens to a marshmellow if you microwave it.  The students set the control of the experiment as the amount of time that marshmellows were left in the microwave.
