How Much Fun Can Science Be?

Special Guest Dr. Al Hazari from the University of Tennessee visited Sacred Heart to share his chemistry wizardry with all the Fourth Grade!  With his wit and creativity, he engaged the students in understanding more about concepts like density, buoyancy, gravity, combustion, amplitude, circuits, and sublimation.  He also encouraged the students to observe, hypothesize, and conduct experiments with safety in mind – while still having lots of fun and curiosity on hand! We all laughed and marveled at the variety of ways that Dr. Hazari demonstrated the wonders and workings of physics and chemistry!  

Many thanks to the Turbyville Family for making this possible through their generous auction gift!
