We’ve been solving a Medical Mystery! @KCSScience 7th grade teachers were hard at work figuring out what’s wrong with M’Kenna and how a problem in the digestive system could cause problems so many other places in her body. @BSCSorg @RCS_STEM instagram.com/reel/Ci1B5omvO…

5th graders in @RHES_STEM’s class at @RockyHillRams finalized their mobile launchers and gave each other feedback today. They are counting down the days until the @NASAArtemis megarocket launch!

How can we make this Newton’s car go fast? Make a prediction. Investigate. Analyze data. Can we explain? @HallsMiddle @KCSScience #KCSregion4 @CWhite_KCS

Smaller mass; one rubber band. Observations and measurements. Controlling variables. Using those Science and Engineering Practices!

Larger mass; one rubber band. More observations and measurements. What questions do we have now? What does this tell us about Force, Mass, and Acceleration? 8th graders are figuring it all out!

Getting excited about training our teachers on the "A Medical Mystery" #storyline (adapted for TN standards) from @BSCSorg this week! Collaboration with @RCS_STEM has been phenomenal (pun intended). @KCSScience 7th grade teachers, we are so pumped for Thursday!

I got sent this message from a WA state science teacher today:
"Working in a small district and having been transferred from middle school to high school in 2020, I'm in the unique position of having taught the same students @OpenSciEd since they were in 7th grade. 1/4

Kicking of another great day of #kcssummerscience! We have adopted our orangutans and will use @OpenSciEd lessons adapted by @ScienceIsFUN4us and Andrea Souza to determine how palm oil production affects this endangered animal. @KCSScience
