Happy New Year!

We started our spring semester on Monday, Jan. 7, and hit the ground running. We started a Science project that is the basis for the State Technology Assessment. This will take most of the month to complete and will tie in with our Language Arts classes as we will be learning research and presentation skills

Our students will be researching a "science" topic of their choice and creating a presentation that they will share with their classmates. I have seen topics ranging from automobile aerodynamics, obesity, and tornados, to exotic ones like "welding" flesh, gecko robots and Biome--the strange Mercedes Benz concept vehicle that was literally grown from seeds (picture below). I can't wait until presentation day as I'm sure I'll be amazed with the information presented. 

It just looks like "Science."
