Mrs. Vivio's class explored how sound is created by vibrations today! Because we can’t usually see sound waves, students conducted an experiment to make them visible. Using tuning forks and a bowl of water, students learned how vibrations travel through different materials. Some students discovered that hitting the tuning fork harder created stronger vibrations—so strong that they caused water to splash out of the bowl! What an amazing lesson, Mrs. Vivio!

EDUCATION at its FINEST right here! Ms. Hudson's 4th graders wrote the most amazing Halloween stories with illustrations! They are posted inside the 4th grade hallway, and are a joy to read! According to 4th grader Jaidyn, "The students had to pick what type of text structure they wanted. Then, they had to plan out their writing on a planner. Next, the students had to type out their story in Google Classroom. Afterwards, students had to color code their story to see if we were missing anything. Then, students went on Canva to create pictures that went with their story! Finally, the students hung their stories in the hallways so everyone could see our hard work!" Well done Ms. Hudson and 4th graders!

Screams of joy and excitement could be heard under the playground pavilion this morning, as 5th grade students designed an experiment that used tug-of-war to test the effects of force and motion. The students happiness was quite evident! They loved it so much! Masterful teaching, Ms. Bigford and Mrs. Reitz!

5th grade Art class has been learning about shapes and forms the last couple weeks. Today the focus was folding an origami paper eye that blinks. This craft helps the students in developing fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and spatial reasoning through paper folding and creasing. It also boosts concentration and patience, encourages problem-solving, and fosters creativity as they transform paper. Thank you for being an amazing teacher, Mrs. Spring!
