In Japanese culture, folding 1,000 origami paper cranes is known as “senbazuru” and symbolizes good fortune, healing and longevity.

Students in Mrs. Bishop’s class learned the names, uses, and locations of various pieces of lab equipment. They “took notes” by creating their own custom BINGO grids — then put their knowledge to the test with a few rounds of Lab Equipment BINGO.
