Who was cured of strep throat during the antibiotic resistance game? Only the roll of the die will determine whether students remembered to take their antibiotics to kill the bacteria. #diseasedetectives #OurDrive @DDMSBuzz

8th graders became Physicians today in our diagnose the infectious disease simulation using discovery education. After making a diagnosis they formulated a treatment plan based on the pathogen causing the infection. #DiseaseDetectives #OurDrive @DDMSBuzz

Awesome density columns simulating how deep ocean currents work, the denser colder saltier blue ocean water sinks to the bottom every time. #ThermoHaline #OurDrive @DDMSBuzz

Collaboration and scientific thinking skills were on 🔥 with 8th grade scientists today as the worked in teams to develop water filtration devices. #CoolScience #OurDrive @DDMSBuzz

So proud of my homeroom kiddos and their hard work, we had a great celebration today during smart block! A huge thank you to the Davis Drive Middle PTA for the awesome Great harvest bread company cookies. #OurDrive @DDMSBuzz

Radiometric dating simulation with “radioactive”skittles today in 8th grade science. #OurDrive @DDMSBuzz

Thank you DDMS PTA for making the last week of 8th grade so memorable for our 8th graders! They had a blast at the dance and picnic. @DDMSBuzz

Along with all of the 8th grade celebrations we managed to fit in some cool fossil science! Thank you NCMNS @naturalsciences @cretcreatures for allowing us to participate in the Cretaceous creatures pilot with real microfossils from Montana. @DDMSBuzz #OurDrive

Smart block is on 🔥with a dueling chemical physical change Gimkit game between Zeches and @SwiftSwift2013!

8th grade Students investigated while behaving like scientists in our Chemical/physical changes & properties lab today. #coolscience @DDMSBuzz

Quarter 1 celebration Challenge: Design and build the tallest spaghetti tower. Loved seeing these 8th graders collaborating and having fun! #STEM @DDMSBuzz

Honored and humbled to be nominated alongside these 2 amazing educators!
