Today 3rd grade students explored the states of matter by making oobleck, a fun and engaging non-Newtonian fluid. They observed how it behaves like a solid when pressure is applied, but flows like a liquid when at rest. This hands-on activity helped them better understand the properties of solids and liquids in a memorable way. Through play and observation, they learned how some materials can have characteristics of more than one state of matter.
Today, the Hardin Northern Freshmen, along with Mr. Suter attended MakerFest at the Allen County Fairgrounds!
MakerFest is all about connecting talent with opportunity — featuring over 100 companies representing skilled trades, STEM activities, and career pathways. Students had the chance to explore hands-on exhibits, talk with professionals, and learn about the training and skills needed for various careers.
It was a great day full of learning, exploration, and inspiration for our future workforce!

Throwback Thursday !
From the 1977 Northern Lites… halftime at the games wasn’t just about the action on the court, it was also about the famous cake raffles! Who remembers the excitement of hoping your ticket was the lucky one? Sweet memories of Polar Bear tradition!
