Earlier in the school year, 8th grade Science classes created Rubber Band Cars to demonstrate the transfer of elastic energy to mechanical energy.
They had a blast designing and testing their cars!

Students in 7th grade Science have had a LOT of hands-on labs while learning about Materials Science. From making slime to oobleck to pouring metal, students explored the incredible importance of the use and function of materials in the world. Thanks to Foundry-in-a-Bucket from Kent State, ASM International, and Foundry Education Foundation, students were able to discover metalcasting in the classroom!

Matching pink slime for best friends
We found the ratio of dye colors to perfect this lime green color!
Oobleck! The mechanics of oobleck took some adjusting to get used to.
The set up for Foundry-in-a-Bucket with all the necessary equipment and supplies.
