Science in Action

Our science goal for Blissfield Elementary School students was to improve their knowledge of the scientific process, including the ability to perform a scientific investigation and communicate these findings. Students have improved their knowledge of the scientific process, as teachers have become more effective in facilitating science investigations and utilizing scientific process skills. Students are more effective in communicating their findings after doing investigations.
