So neat to visit the @myfox8 news station for a luncheon honoring the @nclottery Educator of the Week winners! We were treated to such a nice lunch, met the news crew, and saw behind the scenes! Thank you for recognizing teachers! @1juliehancock@FOX8CindyFarmer@ABSSPublic

This morning students were given different Growth Mindset Awards. The students cheered each other on and were so excited to be recognized! I am so proud of how far this group has come this year! @Smith_Seabees#GlobalLeaders#unitingourworld
HUGE thank you to Sound to Sea for coming out to @Smith_Seabees today! Students who didnโt travel to the beach still got to dissect squid, meet a turtle & snake, learn about animal adaptations, start a fire, eat edible wild plants & so much more! We had the absolute best time!
We are missing our friends at Sound to Sea, but we are bringing the ecosystem education here! Students are researching an NC ecosystem and creating a presentation all about their discoveries! @Smith_Seabees
Students used cooperative learning today in Math! They used a Jamboard & had designated partner tasks to practice adding decimals! #blendedlearning
Students were able to look at different plant and animal cells under the microscope today! So interesting watching them compare & contrast the types of cells visible! @Smith_Seabees
Huge thank you to Mrs. Kasserman for coming in and teaching the kids about our CKH word of the month, โkindnessโ! Students made kindness desk pets, bags for Valentine affirmations & wrote Valentineโs cards for the residents in local nursing homes! @Smith_Seabees#kindness
Students reflected on the people & experiences that have made them who they are AND practiced using different text structures to create an โAll About Meโ ๐ They loved reading each otherโs stories and practicing RI.5.5! @Smith_Seabees#GlobalLeaders#UnitingOurWorld
5th grade spent the week getting a different teacher each morning to learn about holidays around the world! They learned about Boxing Day, the origin of Christmas cards, Christmas in Latin America and the history of gingerbread! #UnitingOurWorld#GlobalLeaders
In order to practice determining the main idea of an informational text, students worked in small groups to match each paragraph from a Schoolnet passage with its correct Main Idea!
