5th graders @HicksElementary exploring different uses of energy (making “energy smoothies”) and discussing the main function for each item! @LISDScience@HarrisHES
@HicksElementary 5th graders added WONDERful questions today on their WONDER Wall. Here’s a peek at what goes on in the minds of our fifth graders while exploring changes in states of matter… @LISDScience
My fabulous 5th graders @HicksElementary are exploring how water can make changes to the Earth’s surface. They made canyons and deltas using water erosion and deposition. @LISDScience @Duban4Science
5th graders @HicksElementary showing their understanding of vocabulary and language using models and with an engaging TPR song about Earth’s rotation and the day/night cycle! 🌎 ☀️ @LISDScience@HarrisHES
Cycles and patterns and shadows, oh my! 5th grade students @HicksElementary began exploring the amazing natural phenomena that occur as a result of the rotation of the Earth on its axis. Day one: sundials and shadows! @LISDScience @Duban4Science
5th grade students @HicksElementary analyzing test questions using their knowledge of forces and motion during our favorite review activity, Numbered Heads Together #kaganstrategy@LISDScience @Duban4Science
5th graders @HicksElementary participating in the “Fan’n’Pick” vocabulary activity during our circuits unit with academic vocabulary cards on each table for support! Thank you, @Duban4Science for joining us! @LISDScience
5th Graders @HicksElementary refreshing themselves on #conductors and #insulators to begin our electrical energy and #circuits unit. We are also gathering our data, observations, and pictures in one place in our new digital science notebooks! @Duban4Science @LISDScience
@HicksElementary 5th Grade exploring refraction with concave and convex lenses and proving that light travels in a straight line during our Light Energy Probe with the help of our amazing facilitator @Duban4Science! @LISDScience
5th grade students @HicksElementary investigating reflection and refraction, recording evidence with their iPad and embedding it into their digital notebook.@DigitalLISD
Students seeing how energy is used in their everyday lives. They loved making smoothies and seeing how a bike pump and a bike all use and transfer energy to perform their functions! @TracyRehfuss@HicksElementary@LISDScience @Duban4Science
@HarrisHES 5th graders exploring different forms of energy with familiar items, including how blender uses electrical energy to produce mechanical and sound energy resulting in a delicious smoothie! @HicksElementary@LISDScience
