Two groups of Kosciusko Middle Elementary students invited parents, grandparents and other relatives to see the results of their recent research into arctic animals and other science topics.
Quest students designed exhibits following their science and arctic animal research and invited parents, grandparents and other relatives to see the results of what they learned.
Second graders, under the leadership of their teacher Lynn Wiggers, researched arctic animals. Maddox Scrivner, who studied the narwhal, said he found that they grow to about 20 feet and the male has a long twisted tusk.
Scarlett Armstrong learned that snow geese are not always snow white and that they are relatives of ducks and swans.
Third graders, under the leadership of Teresa Calhoun, presented a science fair along the hallway.
Shy Veasley showed his “Test of Arms and Test of Fingers” with pictures and statistics explaining the result of his research.
Other projects included, “Does The Color of Water Effect Evaporation?” “How Water Color Effects Flower Color,” and “Can You Tell Where Sound Comes From?”
Through participation in the Science Fair and Arctic Animal Expo, students learned methods of research as well as details about their chosen subjects. Several students named the computer and use of the library as main sources of their research.
