Never a dull moment learning and growing with @VBbehaviorists- especially in festive sweaters!

Considering the following, thanks to #NAGCEquity symposium: - It's hard to be interested in something one hasn't been exposed to. - The student is an individual, not a stereotype. Teach the student. - STEM should be structured and "intellectually messy". #KnowBetterDoBetter

Ready for the break @nnpschat

Last week, we explored fossils. One student made a great imprint example at home! @WSESSmithfield @IWCSchools #IsleLearn #HandsOnFromADistance #WestsideBestSide #LoyaltyAndFocus

From building marble runs to explore angles, expressing art through triangles, and finding rocks to classify, we are still taking advantage of #HandsOnLearning! #isleLEARN @WSESSmithfield #FocusAndLoyalty #WestsideBestSide #ThinkingCriticallyCreatively

Practicing our #MathTalk with order of operations and exploring the ocean floor with 3D printed and picture models! #WestsideBestSide #LoyaltyAndFocus #Communication #CreativeCriticalThinking @WSESSmithfield

We kicked off our #PBL today with an Empathy Fair! So grateful to the representatives who gave their time to talk to our students about how their organizations benefit our community. The kids were so excited! #WestsideBestSide #LoyaltyAndFocus @WSESSmithfield @6_MM_Love

From inquiry stations to web hunts to energy sticks, electricity and force/motion have been moving along! #WestsideBestSide @WSESSmithfield #FocusAndLoyalty #LearningInMotion

What better way to apply probability and combinations than with cookie decorating? It really got us ready for a wonderful winter break! @WSESSmithfield #LoyaltyAndFocus #WestsideBestSide #ProgressNotPerfection #MunchingOnMath

What makes a good sled? Students got creative with some STEM activities while discussing force and motion! @WSESSmithfield #WestsideBestSide #LoyaltyandFocus #ProgressNotPerfection #CriticalThinkingCreativity
