I have a classroom full of scientists! We have been working very hard and focusing on our science project and the scientific process! We have learned that details and being exact are a MUST for any scientist! I know the students are tired of me reminding me of that and telling them that they need to rewrite or reword something so that all the details are included with exact measurements. Despite probable frustration we are on our way with our projects! Less than 4 weeks until the science fair. Don't forget to mark your calendars - March 8 - I can't wait!
