The Buddy classes of Mrs. Cobb's 4th grade and Mrs. Cobb's 1st grade had guest presenters from Huron Pines to teach students about local pollinators and the importance of native wildflowers. Each student planted at least 1 cell of native flower seeds: Black-eyed Susan, Coreopsis, Wild Bergamot, and Yarrow. The 4th graders are growing them in their classroom until the end of May, when Huron Pines staff will be back for a buddy planting day to create a new wildflower plot on campus!

In STEM, we took inspiration from the Winter Olympics and tackled an exciting engineering challenge! Students were presented with a scenario: design and build a solution to help their athlete travel safely down a snowy slope. Using the engineering design process, they brainstormed, planned, and constructed prototypes such as skis, snowboards, and bobsleds. It is always inspiring to see their creativity, innovation, and perseverance in STEM.

Second-grade STEM students conducted a lab that focused on Earth’s changing landscape. For this activity, they completed a Skittles Lab, where they pretended to be scientists studying “Skittle rocks” in the Rainbow Skittle Rainforest. Their goal was to observe how varying amounts of rain would weather the colorful candy shell down to its white core, modeling the process of weathering in nature.
