These kids continue to AMAZE us with their problem solving and willingness to help each other. One of the million reasons why we love our 4th grade buddies ✨

We had the BEST week learning about, designing, and building bridges. These future engineers exceeded our expectations and made this an awesome week. 💡 @Independence_ES @KellerISD_CTE #celebrateKISD

Last day of STEAM Camp at @Independence_ES! Our young engineers used their blueprints to build their bridges. Loved hearing them identify their bridges by name and adding their own artistic touch. Next up, testing how much weight each bridge can hold! @MrsHancockIES @KellerISD

[Brooke Hancock @MrsHancockIES]

Day three of @Independence_ES STEAM camp. These ss are following the design process to build a bridge that can withstand the most weight. We LOVE seeing their creative, functional designs! @KellerISD_CTE @KellerISD @set4thandshine #celebrateKISD #STEMeducation

Thank you @set4thandshine for sparing some fourth grade techies to help us set up our journals! We LOVED starting our OneNote digital journals today. We used OneNote to complete our vocabulary assignments and journal prompts. 💻 📚

We LOVED using Understand Numbers for our small group today! They noticed that they all used different strategies to solve, we discussed symmetry (the spider), and doubling to be more efficient. @KISDMathSquad @CindyYJKim @Independence_ES

Today we did a Jigsaw to make sure we understood our new strategy. I loved seeing students explaining the strategy and sharing multiple ways they can compose/decompose numbers! @KISDMathSquad @Independence_ES @CindyYJKim

We love when our bedtime books are from my sweet, former students ❤️
