@GeauxGabrielle Absolutely, she is a better option by far than Hillary was to represent our gender as first female president.

3rd graders are doing Botley runs to learn that computers can’t think for themselves. They can only do exactly what we code them to do! 🤖 #PLTW #BigHollowWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

It’s GLOW WEEK! So cool how high frequency light waves react with neon colors. We are culminating our hard work in STEM this year with a very memorable week. #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

@BigHollowMS @ilprincipals Both amazing humans who are leaders through their kindness, intelligence, and social skills. Way to go Derrick and Aubrey, proud of you!

After a few weeks of persistence, the 3rd grade groups are starting to figure out builds that will rescue the tiger! #PLTW #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

4th graders show how our senses take input from the world and send it as output to our brains which can then receive that input and react! We also learned about how the brain stores short and long-term memory. #PLTW #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

@carolynwiger You are an absolutely iconic queen. Gorgeous on the island and off. You show them haters!

2nd graders have been busy learning about matter and engineering. We have learned to describe properties of matter, reversible and irreversible changes in matter and practiced our sketching skills. #PLTW #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

3rd graders are experimenting with and building simple machines. They are using the VEX robotics kits to solve a problem. Can they lift a toy tiger 🐅 from a chair up onto the table with a compound machine they build? #PLTW #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

Exploring how our brain gets input from our 5 senses last week in 4th grade. Some very active sensory stations going on! #PLTW #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

[Amanda Strickler @AmandaStrickler]

This week 4th grade learned all about the human brain as part of our engineering problem. Next week we will make clay models of the brain. Will they be able to protect their “brains” from a zombie apocalypse?! Stay tuned… 🤓 #PLTW #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

[Amanda Strickler @AmandaStrickler]

2nd grade is observing, wondering, and connecting about changes in matter as we begin our engineering unit! #PLTW #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

In honor of Black History month, we learned about some inspiring people who have made a big difference in the world through their contributions to STEM. To quote one student, “Whoa, Marc Hannah is my hero!” #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

Shout out to @BIGhollowPTO for their mini-grant program. We got some awesome new STEM toys for the elementary lab and the students are getting creative with them already! #STEM @Bighollowelem

[Amanda Strickler @AmandaStrickler]

@BHMSFineArts @BigHollowMS Way to go, Emma!

[Amanda Strickler @AmandaStrickler]

2nd graders doing ‘moving with math!’They are coding dice race games with a pair programmer and enjoying them. Coding is fun! #pltw #STEM #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem

[Amanda Strickler @AmandaStrickler]

Pair programming with https://t.co/FYpAWtIhnS this week. Dance Parties, Minecraft puzzles, Angry Birds, and Sprite Labs. They love creating and sharing their programming! #STEM #PLTW #BHWarriorPride @Bighollowelem
