Mrs. Taylor's 6th grade science classes practice learning through Gizmo, a virtual simulation that allows students to explore long term experiments without the actual time and resources. It is very rigorous as far as questions it asks and is challenging. This week, students worked on the inheritance gizmo where they cross bred aliens to see which traits were shown.
