Hi everyone, Ms. B here. Welcome to Ford's newest experiment, the Science Lab! What an exciting experience this has been for me! I've launched this blog to keep you updated on the latest activities, student projects and photos of the students in action.The first week back from winter break, students attended a short orientation in the lab. Everyone got to meet Miss Bella (my pet tarantula), the crickets and the composting worms. If they chose to, students got to feel Miss Bella's exoskeleton. Periodically as she grows, Miss Bella molts, or sheds her skin and leaves it behind. She is surprisingly soft! The students also decorated the covers to their science journals, and upper grades talked a little about the scientific method. Check out some photos from the first week:
