Experiencing Space |
Over the course of the year, the Deerpark Middle School 8th
grade science teachers have been partnering with the Austin
Nature and Science Center in Zilker Park to provide
meaningful science experiences for some of our 8th grade
students on campus. The last fieldtrip involved
visiting a portable planetarium, learning about how stars
are created, doing a moon phase lab, and creating scale
models of our solar system. By the end, students were
able to find specific stars in the planetarium using a star
map and were able to name all of the moon phases.
Ms. Stultz and Ms. DeLaGarza applied for and received
funding from Partners in Education to provide these
experiences for our students!

Science is on
fire at Deerpark |
|
| |
This week Ms. Kobren
taught a lesson on lab safety and combustion during her
chemistry unit for 8th grade science. Students talked about
the difference between a substance just catching on fire and
a substance combusting. Students also learned all of the
safety procedures involved in a lab that requires fire.
