The freshman biology students today started to put their “CER” skills to the test by investigating if Double Stuff Oreos are really double the stuff compared to a regular Oreo!!! Tomorrow they will use their data as evidence to backup their claims!!! @GHS_Indians

Last week students in marine science learned about the various ocean regions on Earth…some students learned the importance of checking their sources before starting their work…we learn from our mistakes!!! @GHS_Indians

After weeks of thinking about what to do with the bookshelf in my classroom I finally figured it out!!! When we meet our students basic needs we gain their trust and respect and the learning will follow!!!

This 3-D print job was fun to make…makes taking photos of what students are looking at under a microscope much easier than by hand!!! #aroostookctoy #kirbyscience111
Students can just as easily strengthen their genetics knowledge outside as they can sitting in a classroom…it’s time we rethink what the learning environment looks like! #aroostookctoy #kirbyscience111 @EARSU39
