8th-grade scientists in action! Today, our students had a blast at the Bubble Buster Lab, where they blew bubbles and collected data to test their hypotheses. Using their findings, they constructed solid claims backed by evidence and reasoning. It's amazing to see our young minds engage in hands-on learning and scientific discovery!
