One of my all time favorite lessons that my students absolutely love! They mapped points on a map, measured the lengths and angles of triangles, then classified them to find a missing cruise ship out at sea! Thanks @AngelaRyan_VB for creating the amazing resource for us!

@mslamuller @bfw_elem Love this idea!

[Kaitlyn Norton @msknorton]

Always making us feel appreciated! Special shout out to the greatest bosses for the super sweet delivery today! @IrishPrincipal1 @MsLRiley

On 2 hour delays, kids aren’t served breakfast because the cafeteria is serving lunch. We know many of our kids rely on this breakfast, so our team got them a little something to make sure none of our students are hungry when they get to school this morning. #itsmorethanteaching

On Friday, we acted out how sound energy travels through solids, liquids, and gases. Contrary to our hypotheses, we were able to observe and draw the conclusion that sound travels fastest through solids because the molecules are closest together!

Such a great week at #fetc ! We took back so many great tech tools, met and collaborated with the CEO of Brainpop, and got to enjoy some warm weather in January! 🤩

So much fun learning more about ClassCraft. Can’t wait to try it with my kiddos!

@msknorton thanks for playing with @digcitkids & @classcraftgame today!

It is so awesome attending a national conference with so many instructional leaders. Hold on to your seats @vbschools as we will be returning with a tidal wave of new knowledge fresh from #FETC to help transform learning in your classrooms & across the division! #VBFETC #vbits

Today we tested what type of items were conductors and insulators. We were surprised to see the materials that allowed the flow of electrons to make our light bulb work! 🤩

Throwing it back to our matter unit to tie in science investigation with some Christmas spirit! 🎄🎅🏼

Congrats to this amazing teacher and friend! @msblgomez

[Timothy Patrick Sullivan @IrishPrincipal1]

Less than 4% of teachers in VA can make this claim. Brianna Gomez is worthy of this elite status!!!! So lucky she does her great work @bfw_elem @vbschools @VBTitleI @LeadVBCPS @BeachSupe

@msblgomez Best idea!

[Kaitlyn Norton @msknorton]

Using some of our favorite treats to identify the difference between a mixture and solution!

[Kaitlyn Norton @msknorton]

Loved building (and eating) our elements, molecules and compounds!

[Kaitlyn Norton @msknorton]

All happy smiles practicing how to round decimals to the nearest tenth on our place value number line!

Bettie F is so lucky to have Mr. Johnson!

[Bettie F Williams ES @bfw_elem]

Best math tutor at the beach donating his day to make a cappuccino bar for our staff! We love Mr. Johnson!!

@IrishPrincipal1 @bfw_elem @VBTitleI @MsLRiley @davidbfrench @suggielewis This makes me so happy :)

[Kaitlyn Norton @msknorton]

Did my students see a ghost or a magic trick?! Mr. Sullivan can do it all!

[Bettie F Williams ES @bfw_elem]

That moment when you find out your principal is also a magician.

Using-non standard units of measurement to explore the relationship between the radius, diameter, and circumference of a circle ⭕️

[Kaitlyn Norton @msknorton]

Students were engaged, working together, and applying their knowledge about triangles to a real world activity trying to find the the cruise ship that was shipwrecked somewhere out at sea! 🛳🌊⛈ @AngelaRyan_VB
