Creative Calculus 🤯 Yes, it exists! At least in this collab with Mrs. Donovan's DHS Honors Calculus class and Ms. Armstrong's 5th Graders. The Alden students create a children's story where something - like a 🌮 a 🏀 or 🐸 - is launched in the air and the seniors do the calculus to see where it will land. The results? See for yourself! #MathCollab #DragonPride
Thanksgiving leftovers look different in Ms. Stoloff’s DHS Anatomy class. 🤔 Students dug in to dissect turkey wings to study the skeleto-muscular system.🔬#ThanksgivingScience #DragonPride
