Just had my TAG in Pleasant Grove students dive into the fascinating world of boom and bust cycles in the cattle industry! ๐ฎ๐ฐ Their supply and demand activity was a real eye-opener, putting their math skills to the ultimate test! ๐๐

5 girls down, but these young ladies didn't let having to learn new moves this morning and make last minute adjustments stop them! They cheered and danced their little hearts out and came home with an 'Excellent' rating!!

Today my students learned about boom and bust cycles by pitching their business ideas to me (a newly made millionaire ๐ฐ๐ ready to invest in the best industry). ๐ผ๐ Such a fun way to teach real-world economics!
They were even dressed to impress!

It was an honor to hear from Oscar Vazquez, a true inspiration and embodiment of resilience! It was exciting for our Owls to meet the real-life hero from Spare Parts. It was great to hear him discuss the power of education, overcoming adversity, and the impact of robotics. ๐ช๐ป๐ค
My TAG in Pleasant Grove Owls dove into history by analyzing artifacts on sharecropping post-Civil War! ๐ต๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ Some of their discussions took an exciting twist as they applied their science vocab to describe the relationship between sharecroppers and landowners as a symbiotic one!
๐๐ค Super proud of my LadyBots for clinching the Design Award on Saturday! Their dedication, time management and skill in robot design was reflected in their Engineering Notebook and insightful discussions with the Judges. ๐๐ฌ Way to go girls!!๐๐๐ค #GirlPowered
