Last week, the K-5th grade classrooms attended the Science and Math Expo at Volunteer State Community College in Gallatin. First, let me say, these kids had a blast! There were numerous exhibits set up throughout various classrooms full of hands-on activities. We were able to not only learn something but we were also able to have a great time learning about science. When we can touch and use our hands, we are able to retain so much more than just sitting behind a desk. Just a few activities we got to participate in while at the Expo were learning how important it is to wash our hands, how to make a mold from our teeth, view the inside of real livers and kidneys, play in wet sand, and play "Operation" on a life-size game with life-size bones. These were only a few of the amazing experiences we had the opportunity to enjoy at the Science and Math Expo. Thank you, Volunteer State Community College for offering such a wonderful event for our community!
