Using a @LittleBits Star Wars Droid Inventor kit in STREAM, one of our students commanded this little guy. Next up is to add the stickers and continue to complete challenges. So engaging while learning easy block-based coding. @CBobelis#STEM#STEAM#STREAM#littlebits
Congratulations Plainedge Middle School’s 2021-2022 National Junior Honor Society! We were so happy to have parents and students at our induction ceremony to celebrate their awesome achievement! #WeArePlainedge
Scientists had fun using and identifying two types of acrylic lenses: convex and concave to view words on paper, and images all around us! Then, we used mirrors and spoons to see how light behaves when reflecting off of convex and concave mirrors! 🔎👓 🥄🪞 #WeArePlainedge
Today, the Citizenship Club recognized our Students of the Month of May! All of our students worked so very hard this year, and we had a wonderful time celebrating them! Congratulations to everyone! Keep up the fantastic work!👏🏼 #WeArePlainedge
Recently, our Citizenship Club Members worked hard together to plant several red, white, and blue pinwheels in honor of Memorial Day! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 #WeArePlainedge
Optical illusions could not stop us from learning about refraction, and the bending of light! We had to get down at eye level, and view the cup and various objects from different angles to see it, or not! Check out both the pencil and thumb in water!��🔆💧#WeArePlainedge
Congratulations to Kimberly Dorane, Sabrina Johnson, Angelina DeAngelo, Alessia Giuffrida, Giulia Giuffrida, and Jillian Mauersberger on winning the National Outstanding Achievement Award from National Junior Honor Society! #WeArePlainedge

Students were challenged to create an artifact from Ancient Rome. I love to see their creativity and effort come out! We can’t wait to see the gallery walk of all 6th grade projects next week! @PlainedgeMSLMC#WeArePlainedge
Ahoy! We all were ready for the Density Fish Tank Challenge! Scientists were able to see whose boat can hold the most pennies before sinking while learning that we need more volume (space) to float more mass (matter)! 🛶🌊⛵️ #WeArePlainedge
Yesterday, students participated in an inquiry-based gallery walk. One student came up to me at the end of class and said, “I really liked this activity because we got to move outside in the halls but also I felt like I couldn’t answer the questions wrong!” #WeArePlainedge
Check out some of our amazing 6th grade authors! Students researched, wrote and designed nonfiction books! Their hard work and effort is outstanding! #WeArePlainedge
It was a STEAM Funday Friday! My Scientists used their creativity to design, create, and model their own tin foil boats! We are ready to watch and see whose boat can float, and hold the most pennies before sinking! Stay Tuned: Density Fish Tank Challenge! 🛶🌊⛵️ #WeArePlainedge
