9/11 Heroes’ Day
At Emma Love Hardee, students in Mr. Smith's science lab explored the importance of the scientific method. They learned the six steps of the process and how scientists use them to solve problems and answer questions.

During the two-part lesson, students cut and folded paper into the shape of “spin-a-copters” and tested how well they spun when dropped. Along the way, they were introduced to key scientific terms such as “control group” and “variables.” Classes experimented by changing different factors—such as the mass of the paper, the shape of the blades, or the addition of paper clips—to observe how these variables affected the rotation speed of the blades.

Students recorded their observations, analyzed the data, and shared their results with the class. Overall, they were enthusiastic about testing their spin-a-copters and discovering whether their hypotheses were correct.
