7th & 8th Grade Scientists Diving Into Projects

Anne Deane's science students are diving into a couple of great projects. 7th graders are performing research for their cell model projects. Each student chooses an organism and a cell type. They then create an edible 3D model or virtual model of that organism's cell type. It's a fun project, and the edible cell models are always very well received when shared with the class after presentation. 8th graders are learning how to investigate pseudoscience and compare it to real science. Each has selected a pseudoscience topic (e.g., flat earth theory, geocentrism, Bermuda Triangle) to debunk and they will be working to disprove the fallacies they discover. They may even make some aluminum foil hats!
