The Fourth Grade Students have had quite an exciting time in the Science Lab this year! Mrs. Tucker has provided the students with many wonderful hands-on opportunities to explore the various units of study we have been doing.
We started the year with Matter and Energy. The students were explored the different properties of matter such as mass, density, and volume. They also explored the world of energy by creating electric circuits and magnet investigations.
We then moved onto our unit on The Solar System. Students created models of the Solar System and Moon Phases.
We are now exploring Plant and Animals. The students are learning about adaptations that allow plants and animals to survive in their environment. We also have some butterfly larvae in our room that we will watch carefully as they transform into Painted Lady Butterflies over the next few weeks.
