š EB Reyna Elementary Students Explore Reversible Changes in Science! š
Our young scientists took on a delicious science project to learn about reversible changes using frozen juice! They observed how freezing and melting work, discovering how frozen liquids can return to their original state. From mixing flavors to predicting outcomes, our students had a blast experimenting with science in action. Learning is so much sweeter when you can taste the results! š§āļø
Thank you to our amazing teachers for making science both fun and tasty. Great job, Reyna Scientists! š
