This is what happens when you actually read the recipe and measure accurately... you get perfect pancakes!! Breanna and Jose are students in Mrs. Morse's Food, Family and Society class. This lab was all about understanding abbreviations and conversions. Well done!!
Students in Intro to Psychology had fun playing with Legos and learning about research methods. Each group was tasked with building something out of Legos and writing down the directions or drawing a picture. Groups then had to switch Legos and try to rebuild them using the directions. The learning was that if the directions (operational definitions in research and experiments) are not clear and detailed, it is very difficult to replicate.

Winter Walk to School Month: Week 4 - Build a Snow Sculpture
Hmmm... that might be tricky this week. With temperatures being higher than normal and the lack of snow, the Week 4 challenge might look a little different.
Instead of building something out of snow, get outside for an "out of the ordinary for winter" activity. Play a round of frisbee golf, ride your bike, fly a kite, draw on your driveway with chalk, etc.
Prizes will be given out on Monday, March 4th. Students can watch their email to submit participation.
Did you know that cooler temperatures help you sleep better? Winter walking results in a more restful night's sleep.
