Who, Who would have thought Owl Pellets were so interesting? Mrs. Mann's class at Roosa wrapped up their owl unit by dissecting owl pellets! The students had a lot of fun learning about the different types of owls, their habitats, eating habits, and migration. Then, with the help of science, we discovered what the inside of an owl pellet looked like and the possible diet from various owl pellets. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Ms. McCracken's 5th-grade science classes at Catalayah had so much fun during their science experiment. The kids were given a cup with a mixture of 5 components and separated each one into a container. They experimented with different methods to separate the components of their mixture based on their properties using magnets, colanders, cheesecloth, and coffee filters based on their properties. They came up with some creative methods of filtration! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

CHS Pre-Engineering students take time to explore their future options in the field of engineering.
