Yesterday, Mrs. Sarff’s health classes had the opportunity to learn about the nutritional value of the MREs that our military uses in the field. Representatives from the Army National Guard brought in supplies and explained how military personnel use MREs to replenish their energy stores. We learned that each MRE is approximately 1700 calories and we were able to analyze the macronutrient content in each meal. It is recommended that personnel consume three MRE meals per day and up to six MRE meals on days that involve sustained physical exertion. The students then got to “cook” the MREs using the pouch that was provided and prizes were awarded for best presentation, most creative, and most appealing meals.
Mrs. DeSutter's Chemistry students are learning about Solution Concentrations with Dinosaur Gummies and Sugar Solutions! We will soon be getting into Stoichiometry!
Mrs. DeSutter's Physics students are studying the kinetic and potential energies in a ball toss and the work and power to throw the ball!
