🍎 Apples, apples everywhere! 🍎

This week, Mrs. Presley's first-grade class learned all about apples! They discussed the life cycle of an apple and identified the different parts of an apple. They even put their taste buds to work with an apple taste test to compare different varieties!

To finish out our week, our little scientists conducted an apple oxidation experiment. Students tested different liquids to see which one would do the best job of keeping an apple from turning brown. They made predictions, observed the changes, and compared their results to determine which liquid slowed oxidation the most.

What a fun week of hands-on learning, exploring, and science! 🍎🔬

Who knew learning about the "main idea and supporting details" in 5th grade could be so delicious? 🍕📚 Students in Mrs. Childer's class learned that the "pizza" is the main idea, while the "toppings" are the supporting details that help explain and support it! What a fun and memorable way to make learning stick! Learning is always better when you can connect it to something you love—especially pizza! 🍕❤️

Our Pre-K students have had so much fun learning about The Three Little Pigs this week! 🐷🐷🐷 Today in Mrs. Willis’s class, students retold the story in their own words using props to act out the different characters. Mrs. Mathis's class created some great artwork while learning about different types of homes and the importance of doing their very best work! We love seeing their creativity, storytelling, and learning come to life! 📚❤️

Bridge Engineering Challenge!

Our Middle School STEM students recently put their engineering skills to the test by designing, building, and testing popsicle-stick bridges!

Students explored tension, compression, and truss designs while working to build a bridge that could span a 20-inch gap and support as much weight as possible. 💪

The best part? Watching each bridge go through its official load test! Students saw what worked, what failed, and how they could improve their designs.

The project was a great hands-on opportunity to practice problem-solving, creativity, structural engineering, and learning through testing and failure. Just like engineers do in the real world!"👷‍♀️👷‍♂️

Our Primary students were treated to some very special guest readers today for Books and Barnyards! 📚🐄🌾

Our FFA members visited classrooms to read agriculture-themed books and share a little bit about agriculture with our students. It was a fun, hands-on learning experience, and it was enjoyed by all! We are so thankful for our FFA members for taking the time to share their love of agriculture with our youngest learners! 💚
