Around the Halls
Students in Environmental Science looked at what country their shirts were made in. Then did research on that countries GDP to determine if the country was a developing country.
Mrs. Cleaver's sixth graders are sharpening their acting skills while decoding idioms! Students are bringing phrases to life and having a blast learning at the same time.
Students examined their fingerprints to see if their patterns matched those provided by the FBI. Fingerprints are unique to each individual and even to each finger—no two fingerprints are exactly alike.
CCP Biology students created their own glue from milk and used it to build bridges. Then, they put their designs to the test to see which bridge could hold the most weight! 🧪🌉
Physical Science students practice with scientific instruments.
Middle school gifted students took on a fun challenge with a Silent Auction activity! Each team designed a product to “sell” to the audience—without saying a word. Lots of teamwork, creativity, and big ideas on display!
