Mr. Haselden’s physics students, Dani Weeks and Elias Kief, are busy converting periods to frequencies using wavelengths and time. In their lab, Qualitative Vibrations and Waves, they set up different pendulum lengths. After their calculations, they moved on to measuring and observing longitudinal and transverse waves using a modified slinky. They witnessed constructive and destructive […]

Students in Ms. Robb’s Science class finished off the school year by becoming paleontologists for a day. Students received excavation kits and dug up dinosaurs skeletons of the as Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, and Diplodocus. The dinosaur fossil kits came from Dinosaur Park in Rapid City, South Dakota. Prior to the dig, students learned about dinosaurs found […]
