Research Fair Kick-off

Students enjoyed demonstrations from several visitors on Friday, May 2. A doctor, a medical student, an architect and an animal trainer came to our classroom with tools from their industry. Students were able to touch a tuning fork, an opthoscope, a stethoscope, tracing paper, a drafting triangle, a T square, a water hose, shovel, and other tools used in these industries. Students were also able to observe a serval perform behaviors learned after training. It was a fun way to kick off Research Fair!
