Science Lab

Welcome to the Rockenbaugh Elementary Science Lab!

I feel so fortunate to have a career that is so rewarding, challenging, and fun!  At times it is demanding physically to keep up with all of the associated activities such as the outdoor learning center, Lab Assistants, Recycling Team, and animal care, but it is always worthwhile when children begin to relate science to everything in the world around them.

Other science programs that we have at RES.

Upcoming Events:

October 1st, 2007 – March 31st, 2008 - Abitibi Paper Challenge
Abtibi Consolidated picks up our paper to be recycled and pays our school for it! The program is called “Abitibi Paper Retriever” and if we meet our challenge, we will receive extra cash!  Please consider bringing your paper products to be recycled to our dumpster on the north side of the school near the Rockenbaugh Native Garden and Wildlife Sanctuary.  If you own a company, we would love to have your paper to recycle.

October 26th – Science Explorations Day
Students will participate in a variety of activities in their grade level.  Teachers will lead the activities with parents assisting.
Special Request:
We need 35mm film canisters and 2 liter plastic bottles (clear or green) for our special day of science!  Bring these items to the science lab.

November 5th – 9th – Super Science Store-A variety of educational science toys, equipment, and even animals will be available for sale in the music room.  Parent volunteers will be needed to conduct the sale.
