7th Grade Science - Chemical Reactions
This week in 7th grade Science, our young chemists created and explored the differences between physical and chemical changes. We created various types of endothermic and exothermic chemical reactions using common kitchen products that can all be recreated at home using hydrogen peroxide, yeast, baking soda and vinegar. Check out some of the results!

7th Grade Science - Atoms and Chemical Reactions Labs
This week in 7th grade Science, our young chemists learned about chemical reactions and how energy levels can affect the motion of molecules in a controlled lab with a homemade foam fire extinguisher. We continued our study of atoms and witnessed how the power of electricity can be used to electro-plate metals through a career exploration with an experiment through a copper plating lab! Check out some of the results!

7th Grade Science - Moving Molecules Lab
This week in 7th grade science, our young scientists conducted their first lab by investigating the characteristics of atoms and molecules by using one of our most abundant natural resources...water. Students paired up to create, model and explain how water molecules bond, and how they are able to merge with surrounding molecules at given locations by using common household products.
7th Grade Science - Scientific Method and Coding
Welcome to 7th grade science! Our young scientists were hard at work learning about what is a scientist, exploring careers, learning about the scientific method, and even practicing their coding and math skills using Python and Blockly to create a set of commands to solve various problems via code.org. Great job by all and have a wonderful long weekend!
