The 8th graders have been engaging in hands-on learning experiences, including a cell respiration and fermentation lab. This type of interactive exploration not only allows students to develop a deeper understanding of complex scientific concepts but also fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. During the lab, students investigated the processes of cellular respiration and fermentation, exploring the ways in which living organisms produce energy from nutrients.
