Our 5th graders had an amazing day at Mazon Creek Educational Center! Students dug for fossils, hiked the trails, observed and explored nature, and learned more about the fossils and environment. It was a fun, hands-on day of learning and exploring outside the classroom!
Fifth grade students are wrapping up a unit on prehistory in science and social studies. They built lego fossils, compared modern and extinct animals, proved the theory of mass extinction and explored cave paintings.

7th grade science students are learning the engineering design process, where they design and build a product to solve a problem. They are currently building boxes to safely ship a fresh flower. The challenge is to keep it alive and beautiful!
8th graders are reviewing the engineering design process in science class. They are building self-propelled cars, and they will test them and make improvements on their designs before the final competition.
The SGS Marching Raiders were all over the community this weekend bringing the music and energy! 🥁✨
