🔬Mrs. Belvin’s class got hands-on with science today! 🔬
Students studied mixtures and solutions while practicing the scientific method. They made observations, asked questions, tested their predictions, and watched as different solids dissolved in water. Some students were amazed at just how quickly certain solids disappeared!
What better way to learn science than by getting to see it happen right in front of them!

Teamwork makes the dream work in Mrs. Lyle’s class! 🐛 Lifesaver on, gummy worm saved, and zero hands used!
Our awesome students took on the classic **"Save Fred" Challenge** today. Working in their table groups, they had to rescue Fred (the gummy worm) after his boat (a plastic cup) capsized, put on his life preserver (a gummy lifesaver), and safely land him back in the boat—using *only* four paper clips! 📎
It took patience, creative problem-solving, and a whole lot of communication.

Mrs. Jones' 5th Grade Science class used the scientific method to investigate how the independent variable of fresh, brackish, or salt water would alter the height, width, and color of gummy bears over a 24-hour period. Ask one of these scientists for the results!

Students in Mrs. Cooksey’s class have been learning all about the different regions of Virginia and their unique geography. During this lesson, they got hands-on with a little Play-Doh fun!
Students created models showing the topography of each of Virginia’s regions, bringing their learning to life in a creative and engaging way. We loved getting to see Virginia’s geography take shape!

Mrs. Hardings' students worked with partners to dive into different books and determine the author’s purpose—was the author trying to persuade, inform, or entertain? 📖🔍.

Hello everyone! ☀️ We hope you are soaking up these last few weeks of summer!
We just wanted to share a quick reminder that we are still raising money to bring classroom ukuleles to our music room! 🎶 We are now halfway to our goal, which is so exciting!
Our hope is to have this project fully funded by the end of September so we can have ukuleles ready for our students to use during the spring semester. We still need your help to make this happen! Whether you are able to donate or simply share this post, every little bit helps us get closer to our goal.
A huge thank you to everyone who has already donated and supported this project. Your generosity means so much and will help bring more opportunities for creativity, collaboration, and music-making to our students! ❤️🎵 Just click on the link to share or donate!
