Great to see one of our Carl Sandburg teachers being recognized as WREX Teacher of the Week! Congrats and thanks for your work, Mr. Huenefeld! https://t.co/g3b22MzXnH
Recently we also got a lesson on density. Along with some audience participators, student-teachers created this density tower - a great visual to see this principle in action! #6thgradeHAPPenings#CSS#pretzelpride#science#density
