Today for Lunar New Year, my class dressed in red (lucky color) or cultural attire, did some spring cleaning, and learned a lot about many of their friends' cultures and traditions. I put together a tasting menu as well, see reactions here! I ❤️ being an Asian American educator.

It was great seeing Lego League's completed projects this afternoon!Since so many of my current and former students participated, I had to come show some support 👏

Great work @MosaicES_STEAM and @MES__Art for leading this the past few months!

Happy Lunar New Year from Ms. Nguyen's Class!

In writing, we created and wrote stories about having pet dragons 🐉
During math, we scored, compared, and graphed some interesting Asian snacks.

Wear red to stay lucky this year, especially if you were born the year of the Dragon!

I always have a hard time capturing the amazing moments of my class throughout the year, so I make it a point to capture as much of field day as I can. Enjoy the Squirtle Squad's fun field day recap!

Congrats to the graduating seniors from @OaktonHS, @FairfaxHSLions, @TJHSST_Official and Marsha HS! It was great to be visited by our former Mustangs!

L is for Lollipop! How many licks does it take to get to the center of these lollipops?

We reviewed Roll & Record to practice collecting and organizing data! Tally marks make tracking so much easier.

Want to prepare students for the challenges of the real world? One way is by letting kids handle small issues on their own.
