Science & Techology at BaSICS Teacher: Dr. Paul Muskett ISS Science Fair: <strong>Middle</strong> school students took part in the ISS Science Fair for the first time in March. All students from 6th to 8th grade carried out their own scientific research and presented it on a poster. The students had a great morning in Degerloch and enjoyed meeting the judges and their fellow middle school students. Special congratulations to Harry Higham for winning the grade 7 presentation prize. Grade 8 Science: Grade 8 are studying ecosystems. We have supported theory work by carrying out some ecological sampling. Using quadrats we randomly sampled two areas close to the school to ask the question if there were any differences in plant species present. The next step will be to process the data.
Tinkering The Flexible Friday tinkerers are making steady progress on their soap box carts and we hope to get them completed soon. The wheels are almost on! Some very strong team working and problem solving skills have been shown by some team members. Robotics Club The first robot vehicles have been constructed and we are now developing our programing skills using Lego Mindstorms. Programming the vehicles to travel set distances, detect walls and navigate obstacles have been some of the challenges. Many thanks to Frau Bartels and Mr Potter for their help and support.
