Mrs. Holland’s Biology class is learning about the characteristics of populations. Students performed an investigation to determine the size of a population. They used a method known as mark-recapture to estimate the size of their bean population. A few groups got very close to the actual size of the population. This will help students understand factors that affect populations. #Collaboration #Communication #CriticalThinking
We're so excited about the homecoming parade this afternoon and our big game tomorrow!
Please click this link (https://5il.co/26d6h) for more info about the parade, Veterans Memorial Field guidelines, and game info!
Please note that we will open the gates tomorrow at 6:00 p.m. instead of 6:30 to allow the Tiger Band and Color Guard to perform during pre-game. They will not perform at halftime due to homecoming events.
We can hardly wait to see everyone in their Tiger black and gold!!!
Ms. Driggers' 4th Grade Tiger Time group is coming together to craft engaging presentations that beautifully retell the heartwarming tale of Stone Soup and shine a spotlight on the valuable moral it holds. 📜🥣

CMS students and staff were sliding into their childhood and shooting into their future for Homecoming Week Day 3....
Firefighting students performed the skills of using a pike pole for pushing and pulling items like sheetrock on walls during the mop up phase of a fire. They also learned that in certain situations, they could use an axe to go through a wall to escape a hazardous area. Building construction parts and definitions were reviewed as they were revealed in the demolition. #TheDen #RealLife

🚀🔬🎈 Our 6th-grade students are reaching new heights with their creativity and problem-solving skills! 💡🤝📚
Our 6th graders in Mrs. Myers's class recently embarked on an exciting journey using the engineering design process to create balloon rockets 🚀✨. Armed with only provided supplies, they were tasked with crafting rockets that could zip along a vertical track to help students learn about force and motion! 🎈🔝
Here's how this hands-on experience is shaping their education:
1️⃣ Force and Motion: Through trial and error, our students are grasping the principles of force and motion. They're witnessing firsthand how different variables affect their rocket's speed and direction! 📏⏱️
2️⃣ Collaboration: Teamwork makes the dream work! 💪 Our young scientists are learning the value of working together, sharing ideas, and compromising to achieve their rocketry goals. 🙌🤝
3️⃣ Critical Thinking: Balloon rockets are all about precision and calculation. Our students are developing critical thinking skills as they analyze and adjust their designs for optimal performance. 🤔📊
4️⃣ Communication: Effective communication is key to any successful project. These budding engineers are honing their abilities to explain their ideas, ask questions, and offer feedback to improve their rockets. 🗣️📢
5️⃣ Creativity: The sky's the limit when it comes to creativity! 🌌 Our students are given the freedom to explore imaginative solutions, encouraging them to think outside the box! 🎨🌟
We're incredibly proud of our 6th graders as they combine science and engineering concepts with practical skills in this exciting project. 🌠👏 #RoarandSoar #4Cs #LearningByDoing
Congratulations to Mrs. Saucedo’s 4th grade class for earning their attendance reward! This achievement reminds us of the significant role attendance plays in education.
