Lower School News: February 27 – March 3, 2017

Science Lab

Second graders create a mock oil spill to see the effect on animal life. Using bird feathers and vegetable oil we attempted to clean the feathers after they were exposed to our “oil spill”.

First graders demonstrate planet distances using a Planetary Tape Measure.  They recognize the farthest planets from the sun and learn about Rotation and Revolution.
