Grade 8: Scientists Learn Lab Safety, Foundational Concepts

Students in Dan Barklund's science class used their new facilities recently to learn about lab safety while conducting an experimental design lab exercise. Using only Alka Seltzer tablets and water, they practiced isolating variables like particle size and manipulating temperature to determine various reaction rates. Then, they charted and analyzed their data for lab reports. It's all foundational learning that will carry them through physics and chemistry lessons all year long.
