Ever wonder why detergent is so effective at removing stains like oil and grease? Well, it's just Chemistry! Mrs. McFerrin's class has been working all year to understand elements and chemical bonds. They did an experiment this week with water, which is polar, and oil, which is non-polar. They discovered that after adding dish soap to the mix, the oil broke down and mixed with the water and soap. Hands on labs helped make the connections and validate the concepts that have been taught in the class.

Another delicious day was had in FACS today! Students made bread from the beginnings with flour and yeast and paired it with their own made from scratch butter. They are studying kitchen safety, measurements, and lots of other cooking essentials this semester in Family Consumer Science! Thanks Mrs. Ullrich for making learning so fun. The entire DHS campus could smell the yummy deliciousness in every hallway. Enjoy our photos.

In Family and Consumer Science, they are beginning their studies in nutrition. Today Mrs. Ullrich presented a lesson on presentation and how that can really make nutrition more fun. The students had a dessert and they had to plate it with 3 factors in mind: space, sauce, and garnish. You can see some photos of the student's plated desserts. Mrs. Ullrich took pictures and she will have the classes vote tomorrow on the most appealing looking desert.
