All of Mrs. Ulland's 7-12 science classes participated in CSforAll and Code.org's Hour of AI today.
We all dream of a bright future for our children. In today’s digital world, their success will increasingly depend on understanding how artificial intelligence works. Hour of AI introduces students to the basics of AI — what it is, what it can and can’t do, and how to use and create with it responsibly.
The lesson (called Music Lab: Jam Session) involved programming and remixing some of their favorite songs using AI assisted elements, like layering harmonies and adding drum beats. Each student made their own remix and the results were wonderfully creative and impressive. All classes had a lot of fun! #HourOfAI #code.org #CSforAll

LHS Biology class has been busy this week preparing for their Biome Project Presentations. Each student was randomly assigned an Earth biome to research, make a representative poster, and present about it to the class. They needed to describe biotic features, like animals and vegetation; abiotic features, like average temperature and precipitation; geographic locations; and other fun facts of their choice. They were to have researched at least 3 reliable sources and cite them during their speech. Great job, Sophomores!
