💧🪴💧How do roots absorb water and nutrients and send them to the stem? How does water get from the roots to the leaves for photosynthesis? 🤔 This process may be difficult to explain and understand, so Mrs. Silva's 1st grade Cougars conducted a paper towel experiment to visualize this process!👨🔬👩🔬 #StrongerTogether #CougarPride #DistrictOfChampions






🍂🍃 How do leaves compare? 🤔 Mrs. Silva's 1st grade Cougars went on a scavenger hunt for different leaves in our garden. 🔎 They closely observed the leaves collected to compare them. #StrongerTogether #CougarPride #DistrictOfChampions

In Mrs. Rosales's Sci-Tech Lab, 5th grade Cougars used tools to represent different types of bird beaks (i.e., tweezers, spoon, dropper). They were tasked to see how many seeds (beads) & worms (rubber bands) they could pick up with their beaks (tools) to fill their bellies (cups). Which tool (beak) is the best at picking up each food type? Our 5th graders can tell you! #StrongerTogether #CougarPride #DistrictOfChampions



In Mrs. Rosales's Sci-Tech Lab, fourth grade Cougars became coal miners! With a chocolate chip cookie and a toothpick in hand, the kids removed coal (the chocolate chips), without damaging the land (the cookie). How does mining affect the land? Our fourth graders can tell you!
