What a fun week of review in science! We created Circuit Holiday Cards, conducted Reindeer Force and Motion Races, observed States of Matter Snowmen, and explored the Properties of Matter using festive cookies! @SmyrnaPrimary @JasonEaton21 @MrsAngelineHale

A BIG thank you to Mrs. Hibdon and Hudson for giving us the opportunity to create frog squishy circuits. This nine weeks we have been learning about frogs in ELA and circuits in science- what a fun way to combine our learning. Thankful for these two who go above and beyond always

These kiddos have my whole heart! They make each day brighter. What a fun day of celebrating and getting whip cream all in my hair!!

Students in @Mrs_Black3rd used @canva to create illustrations to match narratives about frogs. I loved hearing these students communicate their learning through writing and visual graphic design. Exciting things are happening at SPS! #ion #communicationarts @SmyrnaPrimary

I got a chance to visit @Mrs_Black3rd and her authors today! Such amazing writers! @SmyrnaPrimary #huskyExcellence

Our new module topic is…. FROGS!! Today we completed a mystery picture to find out our new topic and used our close reader tool boxes to explore the parts of a narrative and find the gist! 🐸 #RCSK5ELA @JasonEaton21 @SmyrnaPrimary @MrsAngelineHale

“Kicking” off the afternoon in the best way possible… by having a “ball”

Today we “touch-downed” on ELA skills that we have been working on this nine weeks! It was a big WIN!!!

Today my magnet knowledge was put to the test by the 3rd graders in Mrs. Black’s room. These 3 knocked me off the @Kahoot podium on the last question!😩 I think they are ready for their test tomorrow. @SmyrnaPrimary #principalsinaction

We are so lucky to have Mrs. Sipp at SPS! She always going above and beyond for her students and has the most intentional small groups! Thank you for all you do!!

[Samantha Summers-Black @Mrs_Black3rd]

What a day FULL of learning! We started off creating our own model to show equal groups on a number-line. Then we became pirates in science and dug for hidden treasure to see if they were magnetic or non magnetic.

Love seeing these kiddos explore their learning!

Food always make learning better!  And food is the perfect medium for learning about matter.

Today we used root beer floats to discuss the three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas and how they can change state.
