MMS Weekly Update May 19, 2023
We are...Millennium Middle School
This Week's Classroom Highlight: Science 8
So...What is a wind turbine's favorite color? Blew!
In Mrs. Wilson's science class, the 8th grade students are developing and presenting slideshows on renewable and non-renewable energy sources. They are honing their research and presentation skills in preparation for their Carbon Balance Project (CBP). In June, they will be presenting their CBP to groups of 6th grade students. This is their biggest project all year!
It has been an amazing experience witnessing their growth as students and human beings; knowing we have participated in that process.
