Today 8 red students did a color challenge lab where they practiced measuring liquid volume accurately.
Mrs. Nave's Science classes formulated and tested their own hypothesis today. What type of liquid would dissolve the tablets the quickest? Cold water, hot water or vinegar.
8th graders practiced translations and reflections on the coordinate plane with a fun golf activity. They even got to take a chance at putting for a hole in one.
Today, 8th Graders had a full day of working with Translations on a Putt-Putt golf activity in their math classes as well as the infamous Pop Quiz Game in American History.
Here are the HMS Weekly Announcements for the week of September 18-24.
