Science at Home

I miss you all, and I hope you are staying healthy and enjoying your bonus family time! Here are a few pictures of the fun science activities that some of your classmates have been doing at home. Please continue to explore, and send pictures of your labs and activities so that I can share them with your classmates (bonus if you are in the pictures)!
