We had an excellent morning touring the Virginia War Memorial! Ask your kiddo about the snow 😉❄️

Kicked off our study of matter by making oobleck. We went outside so we could get super messy! #ONEccps @EESMaher

We are hard at work on our first PBL! We’re making “amazing race” checkpoints for different US regions we are studying. Can you tell what region this is for? ;) #ONEccps @EESMaher

We had a BLAST today exploring the effects of temperature on matter! NaCl and ice combined made for a lower freezing point and excellent conditions for some yummy ice cream 😋

😂❤️

We came back from lunch to a crime scene! But don’t worry, we used our knowledge of matter to solve the case!

Learning all about student health services today! #oneCCPS

We learned about a new Kagan strategy this morning: fan and pick! It helped us to work cooperatively and practice adding and subtracting decimals. #ONEccps @EESMaher

Just a little reading STEAM combo for a fun way to welcome the weekend!

We had so much fun creating skits to show what we have learned about the Industrial Revolution! @EESMaher #oneCCPS

Bus loop is ready for the first day! Thanks to Ashley Terry, Joy Leath, Robin Proffitt, and Kayleon Rockwell for all your help. @EESMaher

This has been an amazing first week of school! Here are some highlights: about me sculptures, who’s in your circle, and the cup stacking challenge! 😊♥️ @EESMaher #bestyearever

Thanks to Catherine Miller for letting me do a #STEAM #PringlesChallenge guest lesson with her 5th graders this afternoon. Their teamwork was outstanding! @EESMaher CCPS Science Department #oneCCPS

Our old Sow is getting VERY Fat! Chase game with Catherine Miller ‘s class! Organization of American Kodály Educators @EESMaher ccpsPerform #kodaly #oneccps #fifthgrade #music

Switched it up in science today and the teachers rotated rooms! We tested the effect of different candies and the same soda on how much gas the balloon would collect! So fun! @EESMaher CCPS Science Department Lynnee Henry Catherine Miller @Emily_Yates42 S. Mardigian

This week in summer school our theme is "Summer Camp" and we have been pretending to spend our days doing fun camp activities. Tomorrow we will be using our reading clues to make inferences, draw conclusions, and solve this Summer Camp Mystery! @EESMaher #oneCCPS

I enjoyed doing an #SEL activity and learning about long division with Catherine Miller's 4th grade group this morning. It may be the last week of ROL, but our summer session teachers continue to do an amazing job! #oneCCPS @EESMaher

And that's a wrap on summer school! I made these bingo boards to motivate my students to attend meetings and complete assignments. This student went above and beyond! I'll be stopping by to drop off a treat and wave from the street! @EESMaher #oneCCPS
