Mrs. Brooklyn's 4th Grade Class Throws a Birthday Bash for Mississippi! 🥳 We took a break from the ordinary to celebrate the history and statehood of our beloved Mississippi!
From reviewing key facts about our capital to discussing important state symbols, the students had a blast learning while celebrating. The best part? Birthday treats, of course! It’s amazing what a little cookie cake can do to make history come alive.
We love learning about the Magnolia State! 💙

📏✨ 3rd Grade Mathematicians at Work! ✨📏
Mrs. Doyle's 3rd grade math students are diving into area this unit! Students were given different shapes and challenged to build them using various sizes of unit squares. After creating their shapes, they counted the unit squares to determine the area.
We loved seeing their hands-on problem solving, teamwork, and “aha!” moments as they discovered how area changes with different units. So proud of their hard work and growing math skills! 🙌📐

🌘✨ 5th Grade Science Fun! ✨🌒
Our 5th graders had a delicious hands-on lesson as they used Oreos to model the phases of the moon! 🌕🌗🌑
Students learned how the moon appears to change shape as it orbits Earth, then created each phase by carefully carving the cream from their cookies. 🍪🔍
Learning is always sweeter when you can snack on it afterward! 😄🌙
