What a wonderful time of year, as our school year wraps up it is observable how much our students have grown and learned. From Map test to Map test, assignments, activities, school store and so much more. Our Oak Grove Eagles are soaring. This newsletter takes a moment to celebrate our 8th grade graduating class. It has been a privilege to get to know the students these past 2 years. As they become Limestone Rockets we look forward to seeing their continued growth and achievements in the years ahead.

The 8th grade students completed the Pythagorean Spiral Geometry project after we completed our unit on rational numbers and the pythagorean theorem. The students had to construct right triangles in order to complete the spiral shape. All of the projects look the same initially until students put their own touches on the spiral.

It’s been an exciting and productive spring in Tech class! Our students have been busy learning new skills, tackling creative projects, and having plenty of fun along the way.

In middle school, we have spent a lot of time in the woodshop we call The Warehouse! Students rolled up their sleeves and learned how to safely use tools while working on hands-on projects. They built frames with dry erase boards for their lockers, crafted birdhouses, and even made their own footstools. Alongside these building projects, students also explored their creative side in graphic design, where they designed and printed their own personal logos. It’s been awesome watching them take pride in building and creating things that reflect both their skills and personalities.

Meanwhile, our K-4 students have been diving into the world of technology. This spring, they’ve been busy learning Chromebook basics—navigating Chrome, creating in Google Docs and Slides, and coding their very own interactive stories in Scratch. We’ve also had a blast building and coding LEGO robots and wrapping things up with a high-energy coding dance party!

It’s been a season full of creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork. We’re proud of everything our students have accomplished and can’t wait to see what they’ll build and create next. The year is winding down, but the excitement and energy in Tech class are still going strong!
