We had the opportunity to explore with the LEGO SPIKE kits! We had so much fun seeing our coding come to life and connecting it back to our science pollination lessons🦋🌸#itsaslaughterthing #lego #stem

This club has been one of the most rewarding & heartwarming parts of being a #schoollibrarian! We had a micro-party: book game, goodbyes, & talk of continuing to read. I’m so proud of the 5th grade reader leaders! 🥰🥹 #itsaslaughterthing #wearemckinney #mymisdreads

Fourth graders got to experience the new @LEGO_Education #STEAM kits today! They explored coding and renewable resources. They were SO engaged! 👏🏼👍🏼🎉 @SlaughterES @SlaughterLC @BilyeuTeresa @KendraHenke #wearemckinney #itsaslaughterthing #mckedtech #CuriousCreativeConnected

**A STEAM Lab Christmas**

'Twas the night before coding, in the STEAM lab so bright,
Not a student was stirring, no projects in sight.
The iPads were charged by the outlets with care,
In hopes that our coders soon would be there.

This was the sweetest surprise! These 3rd graders enjoyed this new library book, and then they wrote their own love letters to our library!!! 🥹😊🥰🫶🏼😍 Thank you @devon_lowe33 for making my week!!! #mymisdreads #misdreads #itsaslaughterthing #wearemckinney @SlaughterLC

Bookface Fun in the Library https://t.co/gz2MAx4qEN

[Audrey Colwell @MrsAColwell]

This was a fun library program! Kids, and adults, were challenged to make a #bookface. Check out some of the creative #bookfaces our students made in the #library! 👏🏼👍🏼🤩😊 #itsaslaughterthing #wearemckinney #mymisdreads #misdreads @SlaughterES @SlaughterLC

[Audrey Colwell @MrsAColwell]

Our kinder float parade was a success! 👏🏼👍🏼❤️🤩 #itsaslaughterthing #funcheckedu #wearemckinney

[Chris Walker M. Ed. @SenaiWalker]

Our class had a blast bringing stories to life with #BookFace! 📚✨ Dive into the magic of matching faces and covers for #BookFaceFriday. Reading has never been this much fun! #itsaslaughterthing #wearemckinney @SlaughterES #FridayFeelings

[Audrey Colwell @MrsAColwell]

These kids dove right into their next task. They’re working at their own pace, collaboratively, with choice about which challenge to complete first, and they are highly engaged! This is so rewarding to me as an educator! 👏🏼 #misdSTEAM #itsaslaughterthing #wearemckinney #mckedtech

[Audrey Colwell @MrsAColwell]

These 5th graders are making progress on their @LEGO_Education #STEAM certification! I’m even seeing some creativity where these engineers are modifying their creations. 👏🏼 #mymisd #misdSTEAM #Itsaslaughterthing #mckedtech #wearemckinney @SlaughterLC

[Chris Walker M. Ed. @SenaiWalker]

📚 Check out our #BookfaceFriday creations! My students lined up their faces and body parts with book covers to make it look like they're merging with the characters on the covers. So much fun blending art and literature! 📖✨ #itsaslaughterthing #wearemckinney @SlaughterES

Our K-2 students were treated to a visit by author, Teresa Argenbright. Ms. Teresa read her rhyming storybook about two sisters and their animal friends. The students loved the read aloud, and they had a great questions for the author. Thank you Teresa! #itsaslaughterthing
