At the beginning of the school year, Ms. Crowley’s fourth-grade class was introduced to Muffles and his delicious (fictitious) truffle business, Muffles Truffles—part of a grade-wide Context for Learning Math curriculum. There is a surprising amount of math needed to make truffles, and this unit was a chocolatey investigation into multiplication and division. Muffles’ friendly assistant, Patricio, gave the boys some important work to consider, diving into US Customary units and conversions—important for math and cooking! Math can be hands-on fun and downright delicious!

Seventh-grade science students are growing—so is their in-depth knowledge about hydroponics and plant growth! The boys planted lettuce seeds after Winter Break and, three weeks later, planted their seedlings. After measuring the biomass of their plants for six weeks, the boys evaluated the various hydroponic systems in our Greenhouse. Which greenhouse hydroponics system created the most biomass—the Tower Garden, Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) with grow lights, or the NFT without grow lights? The Tower won! Finally, students designed and created their own amazing hydroponics systems!
