Consider this: Love chocolate? Thank a fly! A tiny fly is the primary pollinator of cacao and cacao is the main ingredient in chocolate!
Our Kinder students are studying adaptations using bears as a model, while our 1st graders are experimenting with the properties of light. You can bring this to life at home by making shadow puppets!
2nd grade students are learning that organisms are adapted to be well suited to survive in their environment. 3rd grade students are creating models to explain the atmosphere, weather, and climate. 4th grade students have been transformed into paleontologists through their use of fossils from CU’s Museum of Natural History and 5th graders are learning about the motions of the Earth through Kinesthetic Astronomy.

Welcome back! Things are going swimmingly here in Science Lab. We have a new fish tank ecosystem for calming and learning; thank you to Mr. Rumsey and his wife Melissa!
In these first few weeks of school we have been practicing safe science lab expectations, building connections, and diving into the exploration of the process of science. Science is a process, a way to understand the world, is based on evidence and is testable.
