Was it totally cheesy 🧀 that I made my students sit and write a CER about conduction while they watched me make them quesadillas? 😄

These Texans went to Hogwarts today for some spooky fun 👻 🎃

They absolutely loved this spiral review disguised as a murder mystery 😊

My little scientists were excited to learn about metals, nonmetals, and metalloids today. They especially liked testing the conductivity 😁

✨️keep shining bright little ones✨️
