Exploring new tools sparks curiosity in science! Hands on learning is the best way to learn. This led into learning how to use spring scales to test the force of friction.

Student groups were learning how to design an experimental investigation that tests the force of gravity. Watching them design and redesign as an engineering team was so fun! So many unique ideas! @EmilyLoftin4 @comalcreekes @WoodsComal

Last week we launched our force & motion unit and had some fun with balloon rockets. Students learned how to turn a descriptive investigation into an experimental one.

Who has more? Families had fun building numbers and comparing them during our Math Family Night event!

Exploring how circuits can produce sound and heat was a hit today! Understanding the important role switches play in circuits was also revealed when activating the buzzer. 😁 @comalcreekes #todayatcces @EmilyLoftin4 @WoodsComal

@ToddWhitaker Reality…based on the data, 70% of my students are not on last years grade level. Growing kids has to be the new teacher mindset.

@MrsMeredith345 @WoodsComal Love this!!!!

[Crystal Moreno @CrystalMoreno83]

Today my students discovered what it means for a substance to be soluble in water. They love using our collaborative lab space and enjoy learning through investigations. #todayatcces

We are learning how to classify objects as electrical conductors/insulators through investigating, collecting data, and analyzing data. #TodayatCCES @comalcreekes @EmilyLoftin4 @Carly41595

Our 5th graders were excited to be scientists! They got to explore with science tools and practice how to collect and record data. #todayatcces @WoodsComal @Carly41595 @EmilyLoftin4 #growinggreatness

@WoodsComal Sooo glad you were there! It’s my favorite opening lesson to launch the year! 😁

5th grade scientists interacting with the Promethean board and establishing processes for success!! #todayatcces @WoodsComal

[Crystal Moreno @CrystalMoreno83]

Today was a fun day for me and my students! Their 1st observation lab went just as planned! 😁They were curious, had a sense of disbelief, & began the first steps to thinking like a scientist. Their faces were priceless! 🤣
