Display encourages students to take an educated guess
How many cotton balls fit in a gallon jar? How much does that pumpkin weigh, in kilograms?
Those are just two of the questions kids at Farmington Elementary School are being challenged to answer if they choose to think like a scientist.
FES teacher Debbie Ruth saw a vacant display window at the school and came up with a new idea to promote science. Now she uses the window to help students practice some of the things they learn in science class in a fun way.
