— Science: Science in a “Nut Cell” by Jennifer Brookman
Welcome to OHMS's ScienTerrific Class! From exploring outer space to diving into an atom, we try to make the abstract a bit more concrete and personal! One-way Orchard House Girls learn science is through discussing information with me, then applying, creating and modeling their own interpretation! This helps to solidify the concepts and showcase true understanding... that lasts! Come see for yourself and take a journey into a plant cell with me. We may even learn a song along the way. This "Cell"ebration is just one of the many ways I try to show how science is like magic, but real!
