We had so much fun yesterday celebrating “potato day” for our end of the year countdown. Students created a potato pet/person, wrote biographies on their potato, had literacy workshop activities/games, plus science and math connections! @weRweaver #oneCCPS

Another fun week in Robotics Club with @Russell4thgrade! Our 4th and 5th graders learned how to program Dash by @WonderWorkshop and completed an engineering challenge to “clear the road” of spilled pumpkins.

Our first week of Weaver’s Robotics Club is off to a great start! Students from K-5th learned how to code @Ozobot with color codes and worked up to using the online program Ozoblockly. We make a great team @Russell4thgrade 🤖 ⚙️ ❤️

Blizzard Day was a huge hit! ❄️ ⛄️ We researched arctic animals, wrote about how to have a safe indoor snowball fight, then had one with “snowball sight words,” built desk igloos, cut symmetrical paper snowflakes, and so much more. #oneccps

Summer is almost over and school will be here before we know it. Please check out this #AmazonWishList for my new second grade classroom. I’m transferring schools and had to leave a lot of supplies behind. Anything helps, big or small. 📦🧡 #clearthelist amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2H…

Not many jobs would send you on a half-day field trip to the Science Museum of Virginia. We had a fun afternoon of hands-on learning, science professional development workshops, and discussions about how we can tie in the exhibits to our state standards. #oneCCPS @scienceCCPS
