Science Class

Throughout the year, students will examine the questions "What is science?" "What work does a scientist do?" Our classroom is truly a learning laboratory where we will use hands-on activities to discover, explore, and question scientific concepts. Students will use evidence to prove or disprove their ideas. It's an exciting adventure in Miss Probst's class! During the first quarter, students will learn all about the Earth and its resources.
