Mrs. Thomas's class made "Pumpkin Pie in a Bag" today. We made predictions, followed a recipe, learned to measure ingredients, and got to enjoy eating our pie!
Miss Stewart’s class had their November Secret Scientist! 🌽
The Nolands did an AMAZING presentation about popcorn! We were able to participate in experiments that looked at how moisture effects the popping of kernels, as well as the volume of white vs. yellow popcorn. The students’ favorite part was getting to try the popcorn with their favorite toppings!
