In Mrs. Sims's Advanced Biology class, students are learning about the Nervous System. Before they conducted their first dissection, students practiced using dissection tools and anatomical terms by dissecting pickle people they created. Then to review parts of the brain before their test, students dissected a sheep's brain.

Mrs. Barve's 7th grade MS Science class is learning about phase changes. The students modeled transitioning from a Solid to Liquid to a Gas in my class with movement. Students started close together representing a solid, then slowly moved away showing the transition from a solid to a liquid, and finally spread all throughout the classroom to show transitioning from a liquid to a gas molecule.
