💡Science in Action💡 Today, in Mrs. Moreno's 6th-grade Science Class, students got hands-on with an exciting chemistry experiment! 🙌🥽🧪🙌 They conducted an experiment to study how chemical reactions can lead to surprising and fascinating changes in the final products. By observing the transformations in the substances used, students witnessed firsthand how chemistry works—not just in textbooks, but in real life as well. 🔍🔬🥽🥼🧪🔎 👨‍🔬It’s incredible to see their curiosity come to life in the classroom!👩🏻‍🔬
