June 2021 - PVCICS middle and high school students submitted artwork to the Cool Science competition this spring. PVCICS had a 9th and 10th grade student winner and a 6th grade middle school honorable mention.
The Cool Science competition challenges students to express learning about science concepts through artwork. The winning artwork is displayed on public transit in Massachusetts. This year’s Challenge Questions for students were:
What did you learn about extreme weather and climate that you want to teach adults?
Why is a weakening Polar Vortex causing wild ups and downs in winter temperatures?
How will our lives change as weather becomes more severe?
Students had to draw a picture that answered these questions. To see the artwork and read the artist’s statements, see https://www.coolscience.net/worcester-honorees-20202021.
