This week in Camden Athletics! #BElieveinCAMDEN #WeAreCamden #CamdenAthletics

Fifth-grade students in Ms. Tillman’s class at Mary Lee Clark Elementary School created models of plant and animal cells using edible materials 🍪🌱. A graham cracker represented the plant cell, with frosting for cytoplasm and sprinkles for ribosomes 🎉, while a sugar cookie depicted the animal cell, decorated with candies for organelles 🍬. This hands-on project met science standards by helping students identify and label cell parts 🧬, fostering understanding of plant and animal cell structures 🌍. The activity encouraged critical thinking and creativity in learning about cell functions 💡🎨! #BElieveinCAMDEN #WeAreCamden #MLCESMarlins

Uniquely You in Life Science! 🔍🖐️ In 7th grade Life Science, students in Mrs. McGraw’s classes at St. Marys Middle School discovered how truly unique they are! By comparing their fingerprints to those of their classmates and the national average, they learned that no two fingerprints are exactly alike. 🤯✨ Sure, they made a bit of a mess, but they had a blast doing it! 🎉🧪 Learning is always more fun when you get your hands a little dirty. Great job, future scientists! 🔬👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 #BElieveinCAMDEN #WeAreCamden #SMMSBobcats
