Science is in action in Mrs. Roberts’ class! Our students are learning through hands on exploration as they investigate, ask questions, and share what they discover. Students added their learning to an inquiry wall and had the opportunity to work like scientists by using tools specific to different areas of science. We love seeing our Jaguars’ curiosity come to life as they explore, investigate, and learn!
