đ Our 6th grade science students at Benton Middle are hands-on with an exciting experiment â the Cartesian Diver! đ đ§
Students are exploring how air and water pressure work together to make the diver sink and float. By squeezing the bottle, they get to see science in action and discover the power of buoyancy and pressure!
We love watching our students learn by experimenting and asking questions like real scientists! đŹâš #BMSScience #HandsOnLearning #CuriousMinds #WeAreBenton

đ©âđŹ5th Grade ScienceđŹ
đ§ This week, our 5th grade science students are sharpening two of the most important skills of every scientist: making observations and asking questions!
In the Curiosity Challenge, students âtrained their brainsâ by carefully observing an everyday objectâlike their own handâand then asking thoughtful questions just like real scientists do. đâ
Learning to look closer and wonder more helps our students build the foundation for future discoveries! đđŹ
