🚀 "Watch it Go!" Lab in Mrs. Stephens' 8th Grade Science! 📚 Our 8th graders took part in the exciting "Watch it Go!" lab, where they put their literacy skills to the test by writing detailed procedures. Working in small groups, each student took on a specific role, collecting essential motion data for distance and time. Through this hands-on experience, they learned how to identify when motion occurs and explored the relationship between distance and speed. We're proud of their teamwork and scientific discovery! 👏 #STEMEducation #8thGradeScience #TeamworkInAction
