Camp STJ Fun in the Science Lab

Our Camp STJ campers had a blast visiting the elementary science lab. Led by science lab coordinator, Ms Shaffer, the students participated in an activity called “Sink or Float?” Ms. Shaffer showed them different objects and asked the students to predict whether each item would sink or float. Then, each child tested each object. Finally, they discussed their results. The children were excited to share ideas about why some object float. They came up with things like: how heavy an object is or what it is made of. Of course, it wouldn’t be a trip to the science lab without visiting our animal friends.

We love science lab in the summer! #WeAreSaintJamesSchool
