Science Cloud Lab
This week in science class the 8th graders conducted a lab on making clouds. Frist, we started by boiling water. Then they got two cups and put black paper around the glass jars. Then they filled the cups with hot water. After they did that, Mr. Westhoff came over to the group and lit a match and put it in one cup. With the other cup we didn’t put a match in it and just put the bag of ice over that cup and the other cup (control cup). When we did that, we watched as a cloud formed.

Today during Journalism class, we went to Farley Elementary where Josie Wulfekuhle was mentoring elementary students. She was with the kindergarteners, and she helped them with spelling and reading. They were working on spelling their name and sounding their name out in whole group. Mentoring is a way for middle school students to help out the elementary teachers in their free time. The elementary students enjoy having the older students helping them. (by Journalism students: Gabrielle Frost and Andie Haun)
