Hydroponic Plants and More!!

Welcome back, it's another great year for SCIENCE at Hoover Elementary!!

Though this year might look different, our goals remain the same. We will educate ourselves on the many subjects that 21st Century Learning depends on. We will explore our OGarden Hydroponic systems and learn about plants. How they grow, what's involved, and how can we ((experiment)) with them?! We will learn about water pH, vitamins, harvesting, and preparing food to eat! Our unit will have students growing all the vegetables needed for Salsa. We will then hold a Salsa party and invite the parents to attend after school. So much fun!

This year (2020-21) Mr. McCarty will be piloting one of our new Science Curriculums that are district will be purchasing at the end of the year. Students will get to explore TWIGS Science and HMH Dimensions Science. Both are NGSS aligned and have activities and engineering assignments that will our students thinking and acting critically.
