@mrshowell24 I used into intro this lesson by giving the students puzzle pieces to put together! We connected this to how cells are like those puzzle pieces working together to create tissues, tissues together making organs, etc.

Tested different physical and chemical properties of matter last week. Thermal conductivity was their favorite station because they got to use “real science tools” thanks to our @VernierST probes!

Check out our water usage analysis! We compared out estimations vs. actual daily water usage amounts. Then we graphed our daily water usage compared to the U.S. average (300L) and the minimum needed for survival (25L).
