6th grade: Students finished the osmosis experiment with the eggs today. It was interesting to see that the corn syrup egg that we put into the salt water was larger than any of the other eggs. Then we noticed that the osmosis process increased the volume of the corn syrup nearly 40 ml. Next we began a density experiment wherein we poured different types of liquids into a graduated cylinder. The denser liquids went to the bottom and the less dense liquids went to the top. Students guessed where the liquids would end up. Then we dropped small items in to see which were the most dense.

7th grade: We reviewed natural selection. Then each team took a biome and reported the adaptations organisms in that biome would need to make to survive.
