Variables

In science, we have started on a new Amsti kit called Variables. Students are testing different experiments and then seeing how variables, or changes, affect the outcome of the experiment. Our first experiment is called Swingers.

Mystery reader and algebra

We finally completed testing and are enjoying some new units, including a hands on algebra unit.

Also, we recently had a very special mystery reader come to read- Mrs. Moore's husband, Lance!

Here are the students doing algebra.

Student Mobis and Scoot

The fifth grade classes have had the opportunity this week to practice with students Mobis during our review week. These are handheld portable devices that allow students to write on the whiteboard.

Also, students played a fun review game called "scoot" where they moved around the room to answer review problems.
