We had such an exciting day today!  Carol Lee, a guest speaker from the Northwestern University came to see our STARS in action, and BOY did we have fun!

Girls modeled the spread of a sneeze on the atrium floor, and how germs from a sneeze could be transmitted from person-to-person.  They wrote out their thoughts on the atrium window.  The green group talked about visible factors versus invisible factors, creating t-charts to organize their thoughts.  Yellow group continued their brainstorm on factors that affect the effectiveness of student studying, and the purple group interviewed the folks from the cafeteria to learn about where their food comes from and how it is prepared.  Every group spent a lot of time getting to learn about their topics and also prepare for the coming week when the Science Advisory board would come to visit.
