So incredibly proud of all the hard work these girls have put in to creating the Bee Committee! They’ve done an amazing job working towards their goal of getting bees on our campus and now have the approval from the board to move forward with their bee house. So proud of them!!!!

These 5th graders presented their Bee House Project to our Board of Education tonight. So impressed by their passion! Such an awesome example of project-based learning! 💙💛@MaddenTCS @_sofiacerrato @partnershipsall

Let the debate begin!! Do mummies belong in a museum? Dragons used evidence to support their points. @_sofiacerrato

Loved watching all the excitement as @_sofiacerrato & @MaddenTCS 5th graders dissected owl pellets today! They were all so excited to show me what they were finding! 🤗 #TallmadgeElementary

Thank you Mrs. Davis for coming in to listen to our presentation and give us feedback on our Bee Project! We are so excited to explore the possibilities! @tcs_curriculum @_sofiacerrato

Thank you to Mr. Passarelli for coming in today to talk to us about honeysuckle and the effects on bees. We had so much fun coming up with different solutions and furthering our learning of life science!! @MaddenTCS

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

And so, we have found direction for our PBL with Honeysuckle, thanks to Mr. Passarelli! @_sofiacerrato

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

Huge thank you to Mr. Andy from Petiti's Garden Center! We asked for help in becoming experts in invasive species, particularly Honeysuckle. He prepared a fabulous lesson for us, targeting so many of our Life Science standards! @_sofiacerrato

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

We are so thankful to have supportive adults in our district! @_sofiacerrato

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

This friend posed a question that caused a great debate in Science today...are humans decomposers? He made sure a variety of voices were heard as we "decomposed" the issue! @_sofiacerrato

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

Your task -build your "TES Secret Room" to scale, matching your fraction model and design poster. Learners continued their reasoning and application of math concepts through the building phase! @_sofiacerrato

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

Multiplying fractions + student choice and voice + makerspace = a lovely Thursday afternoon full of creativity and teamwork @_sofiacerrato

[Sofia Cerrato @_sofiacerrato]

We had a great time today wrapping up our Native Americans unit with a museum walk! Students made their own artifacts based on the regions they studied and were able to check out what their peers created! @MaddenTCS

[Sofia Cerrato @_sofiacerrato]

We had so much fun at family night! We loved having the opportunity to share what we have learned about light and sound with our friends and family. Thank you @TallmadgeElemAP and @tcs_swood for joining us tonight! @MaddenTCS

[Sofia Cerrato @_sofiacerrato]

One more day until family night!!! We’ve been preparing by seeing how we can improve our own work and by giving each other some peer feedback! @MaddenTCS

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

Thank you to Mackenzie Kaser for sharing her expertise in the civil engineer world! Your presentation helps support so many of our learners and their personalized journeys to understanding the behaviors of light and sound and solving related problems. @_sofiacerrato

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

Dragon Wars, student-created problems, and peers showing ideas...such a fun time! @_sofiacerrato

[Sofia Cerrato @_sofiacerrato]

This friend decided to present to the class about the Plateau Native Americans. This was a great way to start learning about the Native Americans in North America! Thank you for putting this together friend!! @MaddenTCS

[Sofia Cerrato @_sofiacerrato]

We had an epic debate in math!! The kids started their own debate about if a square is automatically considered a rectangle. They were debating the wording of a question and how squares and rectangles share characteristics!! @MaddenTCS

[Sofia Cerrato @_sofiacerrato]

This was such a fun way to extend our studies about the indigenous people of Latin America!!

[Mrs.Madden @MaddenTCS]

Miss Cerrato's Mom came in for a visit and to teach us some Spanish! @_sofiacerrato
