  13. Fifth grade students at Milbrook Elementary School work in their newly established science lab.

  14. Students at Logan Elementary enjoy science activities at their Grow Lab Mobile Indoor Garden.

  15. Exploring a whole new world at Glenmar

  16. Science Labs Encourage Teamwork!

  17. Science labs offer opportunities for authentic engagement!

  18. Elementary Science Lab Classrooms? WHY???

  19. Giving children opportunities to experience hands-on activities with sophisticated materials not only enables them to meet with success, but prepares them for the increased demands of future grades.

  20. Increasing the knowledge base and proficiency level of lab teachers… …helps children, empowering them to SOAR to new heights.
