We channeled the leftover “May the 4th” forces to experiment with how slope can effect the pull of gravity. Science Rocks! #OCTAllStars

⁦cynthia rutter’s class also⁩ channeled the leftover “May the 4th” forces to experiment with how slope can effect the pull of gravity. They really “ramped” up their learning! #OCTAllStars

👩‍💼❤️👨‍💼Lawyers, and Engineers, and Entrepreneurs oh my! We learned a lot during Career Day about getting an education, finding your passion, and working hard. Thank you ⁦OCTWhisman⁩ for planning a fun event! #OCTAllStars

🎲🩷♟️We ended a successful year of math by creating fun and engaging math review games. They put in a lot of work and thought into these games, and I’m super proud of them. #OCTAllStars

🤠❤️Saddling up for another year of success with this 4th grade crew. Melanie Grant Holly Martin #OCT4U #GCISDConvocation2024 #WeAreGCISD

💙🐯🧡As I say every year, we have the BEST O.C. Taylor PTA on this side of heaven; and every year they keep on showing it through their continuous love and support. Thank you so much for ALL that you do! #SaddleUpOCT #OCT4U

🤠Learning about Texas history is underway! Today we talked about the geography of TX based on location, resources, and human interactions. #SaddleUpOCT

⚖️🎾 Students in ⁦Melanie Grant’s class⁩ used what they knew about pan balances to classify matter based on its mass. #SaddleUpOCT

⚖️🎾 More fun with Science! The students in ⁦Holly Martin⁩’s class blew me away with their writing about classifying matter based on mass. Ask your child to share their claim and evidence! #SaddleUpOCT

Students engage in a Keeley Page probe and “Toss & Commit” strategy to share what they think they know about relative density. Later this week, we will revisit their responses after several activities. #SaddleUpOCT

🧲 Students conducted an investigation where they tested different items for magnesium. Some students were surprised to find out that not all metals are magnetic. #SaddleUpOCT

Student investigate with 3 different solutions, observing how particles dissolve and spread out evenly to form solutions. #SaddleUpOCT

Today we had a special virtual guest from the #BobBullockMuseum! We learned about the Spanish Missions in TX from a historian. Ask your child about the Chicken War. #SaddleUpOCT

Exercised my right to vote! Will you join me?

Today ⁦OCTWierzbicki⁩ and I engaged in some powerful PD with ⁦Think Big Learning⁩ about phenomena. #SaddleUpOCT #GCISDSci

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Military service is defined by honor, courage and commitment. Remembering all who serve and have served our great nation this Veterans Day. Our students did a great job honor those who served! #SaddleUpOCT

⛳️❤️ Nothing like a friendly game of “Capture the Flag” to review for our next Science test tomorrow! #SaddleUpOCT

⛳️❤️ More capture the flag fun with a different class! These students worked so well together as they answered questions about living organisms. #SaddleUpOCT

🛝🏈 Extra recess for excellent behavior is always a win! Congratulations to Mrs. Steele’s homeroom for emptying their jar. #SaddleUpOCT
