After weeks of crummy weather, we weren’t sure Mother Nature would cooperate for our 7th grade field trip to Calkins Nature Center today! The morning looked questionable, but the weather turned around, and we had a great day enjoying the outdoors! 🌳🍂☀️

Sixth grade SAIL persevered and problem-solved their way through constructing a hydraulic arm. The result was rewarding!
Who said learning about water molecules in second grade can't be fun?!? While doing candy experiments, we need to understand some of the science behind it, too!

For Cougars' Critical Thinkers (CCT), 3rd and 4th grade are working on their execution functions. First function is planning! Besides filling out a planner to better organize themselves, they also made an October calendar to refer to at home!
Several of the Painted Lady butterflies were ready to be released. The kindergarteners were excited to watch!
Today the 4th graders enjoyed a field trip to the Parkersburg Airport to first learn about crop dusting by Midwest Custom Ag. Then we headed to McDonalds for lunch where we got many compliments on how well the students behaved. Lastly, we went to Gallagher Bluedorn to watch Mr. C Live, who performed high energy science experiments.
More photos from our 4th grade field trip today.
Mrs. Oelmann's class had the chance to experiment with Skittles! Most found their hypothesis to be correct! Several students commented that they want to try this at home now.
Kindergarten has been learning about caterpillars and butterflies in Cougars Critical Thinkers class (CCT). We have now moved the chrysalises of the Painted Ladies into their nets. Now, we wait!
