Stone students in Dr. Alexander's science class became underwater engineers as they designed and tested their own Cartesian divers, discovering how pressure can make objects sink, float, or hover in place. With every squeeze of the bottle, their divers sprang to life—darting, diving, and rising like tiny submarines responding to invisible forces. The room buzzed with excitement as they mastered buoyancy through hands‑on experimentation!

Stone students in Dr. Alexander's classes explored how objects can be grouped based on shared properties, helping them see that classification isn’t random—it’s driven by patterns. This same idea is at the heart of the periodic table, where elements are organized by similarities in their physical and chemical characteristics. By sorting everyday items first, students built the foundational thinking needed to understand why elements fall into families and periods that reveal predictable behaviors.
