From the Science Department...
- This afternoon we had a presentation by WISE (Women in Science and Engineering) about electricity.
- Students had the chance to build several different circuits!
- It was electrifying!
From the Math Department...
In Math, students had the chance to solve skyscraper puzzle problems. Here's how it works: they receive a grid of squares, all of which contain a skyscraper of various heights. Around the grid are clues telling how many skyscrapers can seen from each perspective.
What fun working together to solve the puzzles!
