Third grade scientists exploring the relative sizes of and distances between planets! @StTimsRaleigh

4th graders are playing with divided tanks in lab today to learn about weather fronts! (Thanks, @StTimsRaleigh Annual Fund!)

#HurricaneFlorerence isn’t keeping these @StTimsRaleigh 3rd graders from figuring out the difference between a science fruit and science veggie! @MysterySci

A look at the Thursday #Sunrise over Hurricane #Florence, spinning less than 200 miles off of the coast of #NCwx. Gives you a good sense of the pure size of the storm. Impacts will be wide reaching, so don't take the threats lightly! More info: https://t.co/2SQKH6G0vB

For the Triangle, the time period of strongest winds will likely be around Midnight through 8pm tomorrow. 40-50mph gusts possible, potentially isolated gusts 50-60mph. Winds will stay up through the weekend, but gusts will probably be more in the 30-45mph range.

@NWSRaleigh @RachelKasten Thanks! The videos have been super helpful. Thanks for all you guys do!

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

@NWSRaleigh @RachelKasten Will you be posting a video/discussion brief? Or is it just the PPT slides?

[Nate Johnson @nsj]

If you're interested in a quick, technical look at why the "American" and "European" models differ, check this out.

Remember, the NHC folks know all of this and are accounting for it.

But if you want to peek behind the curtain a bit, this is good stuff.

Here's a glimpse inside NWS Raleigh's forecast center. All hands are on-deck, discussing and collaborating on the forecast to provide residents of central North Carolina with critical life-saving information as Hurricane Florence threatens to impact our area. #ncwx

[The Ocean Cleanup @TheOceanCleanup]

The Ocean Cleanup's first cleanup system, System 001, is now on route into the Pacific Ocean. Follow our progress over the next months as we head to the middle of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

Playing with variables to determine the ideal scenario for cloud formation. Does the ocean need to be warm or cold? How about the sky? If you’re curious, ask an @StTimsRaleigh 4th grader to find out!

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

3rd graders kicked off their plant unit today by making root viewers! Hopefully in a few days we’ll see some starting to emerge from our radish seeds.🤞🏼🌱 @StTimsRaleigh

[Boyan Slat @BoyanSlat]

18 days to launch! Final pipe weld happening today

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

We had a great first day in Science Lab! Kindergartners became pipette PROS. Have a great weekend, Titans! @StTimsRaleigh

UNC forward Luke Maye will return to North Carolina for his senior season

Third graders are using what we’ve learned about electricity and circuits to design their own switches and “alarms!” #engineeringiselementary @STSScienceLab

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

Kindergarten scientists practice the important skill of observing! The attention today was on the our pet goldfish. Some were apparently hungrier than others 😜. @StTimsRaleigh

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

Kindergarten scientists had a blast learning about dinosaurs 🦕 in Science Lab! We wrapped up the unit by making our own dino fossils. They turned out great! @STSScienceLab

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

Where do seeds come from? Some popular answers included “Lowe’s,” “The Seed Store,” and “from Mrs. Morgan.” Today we discovered that seeds actually come from plants, and we tried to dig out as many as we could from cucumbers, tomatoes and lemons! @AdcockMadcock @gardengirl266

[Mrs. Shank @STSScienceLab]

Mixed feelings about our mold experiment in 4th grade.... Although we know fungi 🍄 play an essential role in ecosystems, they can get pretty smelly👃🙅🏻‍♀️! @StTimsRaleigh
