Engaged in scientific inquiry looking for patterns, our 7th graders in Mr. Pellock’s class were on a mission to solve a mystery dating back to the 1800’s! What a great way to kick off the second week of school together! #OurTimeToShine 🐊☀️#CalvertShines

For even more collaboration, cooperation, and building #relationshipskills Mr. Kohan’s 7th grade science classes challenged each other to engineer the tallest structure! Lab groups worked together and rose to the challenge! #OurTimeToShine #CalvertShines 💚🐊☀️

Effective teachers don't focus so much on rules, but more on relationships, routines, & expectations. If you focus mainly on rules, you will spend most of the year enforcing them. But if you focus on relationships, routines, & expectations, you rarely have to defer back to rules.

Wrapping up your class with intention can be really powerful. These *5 activities* bring SEL and academic reflection together. 🙌🏾

Love to start the holiday by seeing our Calvertnet HtownESCCPS students showcased on Outdoors Maryland helping to make reef balls to support the Chesapeake Bay ecosystem. #calvertshines video.mpt.tv/video/episode-…

Sixth graders are learning about force and motion in science classrooms this quarter. Any thoughts?

Math Night our Plum Point Elem Destination Imagination team led three #STEM stations of water and fun! 350 people! CCPS STEM Calvertnet Math PK-5 we gave 77 Nature STEM ideas from dailySTEM Chris Woods Thanks Constellation

Join us tomorrow! Get out of the weather and have some science and engineering fun!
