Our fourth-grade students completed science fair projects where they carried out scientific research and identified science variables like true scientists. We are proud of these students for learning about the scientific method.
Ayden Cummings placed first with “How Weight Affects a Drone’s Battery”, Karmen Cummings placed 2nd with “Exploring Beach Erosion”, and Edwin Locklear placed third with “Magnetic Levitating Trains”. All three of these students will go on to the Regional Science Fair at UNC-Pembroke on February 17, 2024.
The projects submitted did an outstanding job representing science and engineering! We appreciate our fourth-grade science teacher, Mrs. Whitney Oxendine, for helping our students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Way to go, Tigers!
