Month: September 2024

Scientist Shirley from SCWIST came in for a visit today!

She talked about the three states of matter and the different types of chemical and physical changes that can occur in many items we are familiar with.

We were excited to engage in a messy, hands-on activity that tested the question:

“Can something be both a solid and a liquid at the same time?” YES!

We learned of Non-Newtonian fluids … and we made one today! (This fluid can behave like both a liquid and a solid depending on how much pressure is applied).

Check out Div 12 scientists in action:

 

If you entered our classroom on Friday afternoon, you would have been delighted to see the glow of cozy forts and conversations between students fully engaged in reading.

Reading by flashlight with a buddy is something we are now looking forward to every Friday…

Division 12 has been having a lot of fun learning soccer fundamentals and challenging drills with Coach Chris and Coach Matt from PASS Soccer!

We are learning to juggle the ball with our feet, test our reaction time, and develop our ball control skills. We have two more sessions remaining and we can’t wait!

Check out the fun below!
