Mrs. Cook’s classes “hands on project”-
The phenomenon today was "Science Never Sucks!" Suction isn't a scientific term. They had to figure out what forces were at work and how they make the plunger stick to surfaces.
Ms. Chambers’ students doing an activity where one student describes a picture and their partner has to try to draw what is being described. Great ice breaker and “get to know you” activity for the first week.
Ms. Patterson’s Sophomore English classes participated in a great lesson today - Puzzle Mania- one person is blind folded and must listen to their team members to assemble a puzzle. Only the blind folded person can touch the puzzle pieces. Teaches listening and speaking to achieve a goal together. Listening, following directions, concentration, and team building skills are so important in school and the “real” world! Isn’t it awesome when the students are having fun while learning?
Coach Huddleston would like to recognize Elian Mondragon for receiving a qualifying score on the AP U.S History Exam.
