We kicked off our first week of summer school discussing the sun and solar energy. We decided to test out how well solar energy works by creating our own solar ovens. What better way to test out our ovens than by making s’mores? The s’mores passed inspection! Yummmmm!!!

5th grade Science investigation on fossils
We wrapped up our year in the Ag classroom with some cool projects. The 6th graders ended their food science unit with making butter, the Intro to Ag class finished their food science unit by making honey comb candy and dehydrating fruit, Companion Animal Care finished their year by creating their dream aquariums, and Plant Science finished their year by creating their dream landscapes.
Chemistry students are sad to see the end of chemistry class while they wash all the lab equipment. They are actually smiling behind their masks so probably won't be missing chemistry homework too much!
