Mrs. Hamilton's students experimented with enzymes this week. Each group observed the reaction that occurs when hydrogen peroxide comes in contact with catalase found in potatoes. From their results, they were then able to describe the effect pH and temperature has on enzyme activity.

Mrs. Hamilton's students used their knowledge of macromolecules and worked with their partners to crack the code during this escape room activity.

Mrs. Pegueros’s Foundations of Biology classes did an exciting escape room review of Macromolecules to help prepare for their first test next week.

Ms Hydrick’s Physical Science students were introduced to the lab on the first week. They conducted a lab that allowed them to follow the scientific method and basic lab procedures skills by making soap bubbles in class!

Today in Coach Pope's Earth and Space Class, students re-created and compared expanding balloons to the Big Bang Theory and made hypotheses to explain the beginning of the Universe!

Mrs. Pegueros’s Foundations of Biology students dove into their first group building activity with excitement and curiosity while working together and communicating effectively.
