Mrs. Horton’s class had a "sweet" time with math today! Our students used candy hearts to practice tallying their findings and then combined that data to create a giant class graph. Learning is always more fun when there are treats involved!
If your 8th grader comes home trying to stick a balloon to everything… blame science 😄🎈⚡️ Static electricity stations helped us explore why objects attract, repel, and sometimes make your hair stand up!
