Learning about states of matter and how it can change between states due to temperature changes and energy levels of particles with @correllscience earlier this week @hmpearsonelem. Such exciting experiments for our first graders! @FCPS1Science @FCPS1News @MajorWarner40

“ON THE MOVE” with graham crackers and frosting to model the different types of plate tectonic boundaries: transform, divergent, and convergent. Had to fit in this fun lab even with a short week! @FCPS1Science @GreenvilleES

Our 5th graders used the Code and Go Mice to collect examples of the four types of energy. They strategized, formed plans, coded, debugged, and had so much fun! Thanks to Mrs. Currence for planning this amazing activity! @FCPS1News @FCPS1Science

I had some amazing helpers in science today! We did a matter lab to make soap! The kids even made a container (box/envelope) out of wrapping paper scraps to gift their creation. Love seeing their creativity come through. ❤️ @FCPS1Science @GreenvilleES
