The Charles Goodnight Mini Museum has arrived at Holmquist Elementary Students will be learning about Texas History, practicing key Social Studies skills, and seeing actual artifacts when they visit. Thank you Andrea Martinez for inviting us to participate! #hummingbirdsfly

3rd gr. students practiced inference & map skills in the "Three Cousins, Three trails" activity during their museum visit today. Getting to see real artifacts was a hit too! My favorite connection was how the gourd was an old school Stanley cup 😂 Holmquist Elementary The Bryan Museum

2nd grade. students were masters of observation. They observed different paintings, made inferences about main characters & used their 5 senses to imagine being there in the painting. This group loved the lariat! Holmquist Elementary The Bryan Museum Andrea Martinez #hummingbirdsfly

1st gr. students used the POSERS strategy to engage with the paintings from the The Bryan Museum Thanks to Andrea Martinez for adapting the observation activity so these scholars could participate with the museum as well! Holmquist Elementary AliefLibraries #beyondthebook #hummingbirdsfly
