Meet Kida and Nerys πŸ’•, the two newest pets to 3rd grade. These two Chinchilla sisters are sweet and curious! They are slowly getting used to their new home in the third grade science and engineering lab. If you are in Blaine, stop by and say hi πŸ‘‹πŸ½ @uchicagolab @UCLSPrincipal

It wouldn’t be a Wacky Science Day without spending time with our curious and kind Guinean pigs! #uclskids #lskids #LohitsaScience @uchicagolab

This week, 3rd grade scientists had a chance to use balances to determine the weight of various objects. We will be using this tool in next weeks lab! Get excited 😊 #uclskids #lskids #LohitsaScience @uchicagolab @UCLSPrincipal

My students are truly amazing human beings! Their hearts β™₯️ are so big! A student of mine made this beautiful elephant for me. She is adorned with a bindi and a sari just like her science teacher. This elephant brings a smile to my face everyday! @uchicagolab @UCLSPrincipal

FAIL FORWARD! It’s not a failure if you learn something new and make a change! Our 3rd grade engineers identified what worked and didn’t work to attempt rounds 2 and 3 of spaghetti towers! #stem #lohitsascience #learningbydoing

White privilege is on display like never before in the U.S. Capitol. If these people were Black. . .well, we all know what would be happening right now to them.

Ss can do all sorts of amazing things if you let them be #creative! Here, a 3rd grade Ss demonstrates what they learned about glaciers during #remotelearning projects on #Seesaw at home! #authenticassessment #ISTEcert #learningbydoing #edtech @uchicagolab @UCLSPrincipal @Seesaw

Sorting and classying things by various characteristics is an important skill. In an assignment from our first week of #remotelearning Ss collected rocks from their backyards and sorted them into various groups. Here’s what we found! #learningbydoing #LohitsaScience @uchicagolab
