Google Slide presentations for South American Projects! Indoor recess in grade 6! Puzzles and chess are a couple of faves! These were 2 dress down days: 70s and Valentine's Day!
Kudos Christina for winning an award for Honor Roll! Grade 8 is participating in a jigsaw review for The House on Mango Street. Grade 6 is decked out for the 70s!
Student Council were prepping hearts for our Choose Love fundraiser which raised over $300! Half of all our fundraising this year goes to St Jude's Research Hospital! Grade 6 earned some Valentine's Day goodiesπ€
Some goings on in 148! Our Ugly Sweater Wreath is a tradition. Student Council created a MAP Rally Board! Grade 6 loves Langston Hughes' "I,Too, Sing America!" For 100th Day, we found 100 African American quotes!
@sellon_jennifer@SJP2CALowerMill I love these times with my MS rock stars and future scholars! They all learn from one another!! God Bless Lower Mills leaders!
Ready for St. Pat's Day in 6A with gold coins for a full week of homework in students' pots. Coins may be exchanged for rewards! Harlem is a brilliant symbol of history in the making, matching our Black History display!
100 Day Project is 25 young people who died during Civil Rights Movement; 25 young people who died during the Holocaust; 50+ of my students (pat and present) who will be the change against hate!
Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead! We discussed ancient Greek water timers, and our engineers designed and built water timers from kits of identical materials, yet no two timers are identical! We posted comments and responses on our second Padlet. SJP2CA Lower Mills loves EiE the MoS!
@Rutabega80 @EiE_org These are, completely, mapped, planned mini-kits to coincide with teacher guided materials. MoS created interactive Engineering Notebooks for scholars to record their findings and thinking along the way! This is a great resource!
Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead with EiE and the Museum of Science! SJP2CA Lower Mills middle school students are on their final unit, "It's About Time" is the name of the unit! We are building timers and studying time through history! We designed, built, and tested hourglasses today!
SJP2CA Lower Mills is Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead and completed our testing today! These amazing middle school engineers combined components of runoff preventative technology through our virtual EiE kits! Thank you Museum of Science! Stay tuned for for our next unit!
Some of our permeable pavement and green roof technology cityscape models have been tested for runoff! Our SJP2CA Lower Mills middle school engineers are ready to improve the environment of our city thanks to the Museum of Science!
More Index Card Tower designs! Can they hold a stuffed animal or water bottle for 10 seconds? You may be surprised! What do you think? Thanks Museum of Science and CSO! Stay tuned for the next stage of Green Roof Technology! "Don't Runoff!"
