Thank You Vernier!

At the SSP Fellows Institute in Washington D.C. each Fellow was given a Vernier LabQuest Interface and several probes to take back to our classroom! Awesome! Thank you David Vernier!

Support this generous company that is supporting my students.

Thank you also NCSSSMST for arranging this! :)

As part of the SSP Fellowship Institute in Washington D.C. we experimented with pillbugs (aka rolly polly). Our group decided to experiment with pillbug snack preferences. We were surprised to find that pillbugs are Lays BBQ flavor fans.
