On today’s trip to The Houston Museum of Natural Science ❤️🦖🧠🌌 students were able to connect their learning from the classroom to the real world! A phenomenal day that will not soon be forgotten 🫶🏼 Aldine Middle School Aldine ISD 📚Aldine Middle ELA Dept📚 #AldineImpact

One of my favorite parts of being a teacher is when my students’ inspiration strikes and they choose me as the person they want to share their ideas, experiences, stories, etc. with! I’m teaching little geniuses & I’m so grateful to be apart of their academic journey 🌟🍎

To kickoff our final Module 4: Courage in Crisis, students competed in a 2-day Survivor-themed challenge!!! 🏆🌴💪🏼🎉 #buildingbackground #makelearningfun #AldineImpact Aldine Middle School Aldine ISD

In our 1st challenge, students learned about Ernest Shackleton’s treacherous voyage across Antarctica and executed leadership skills with their tribes to build a shelter strong enough to withstand a snow storm⛈️🌪️ #handsonlearning #AldineImpact #AMSFlex Aldine Middle School Aldine ISD

In today’s 2nd challenge, students learned about Malala Yousafzai bravely speaking out for education rights against the Taliban and created their own pro-education equality themed anchor charts 📣🗣️ Aldine Middle School #handsonlearning #buildingbackground

In today’s 3rd tribe challenge, students competed in a Kahoot knowledge test quizzing them on different impactful leaders throughout America’s history 🧠⚡️ Next, their communication skills were put to the test in a charades game👂🎭 #courageincrisis #AldineImpact Aldine Middle School

In final class survivor-themed challenge, tribes created anchor charts reflecting on what they learned about Shackleton’s leadership, Malala’s courage, & the ripple effect of one person’s actions before presenting them to the class 📝🗣️ #AldineImpact Wit & Wisdom English Aldine Middle School
