🧡🚀 Mission: Destination Moon! 🚀🧡
Our 6th grade science students took learning to new heights today as they teamed up with NASA! 🌕
Through a virtual experience with a NASA space expert, students explored the Moon’s surface, worked through what it takes to establish a habitat for astronauts, and stepped into the role of mission control, monitoring space conditions, launching into orbit, and ensuring a safe landing.
What an incredible, hands-on way to bring science to life and inspire the next generation of explorers! 🌌🧡🐾

🌈🔧 STEM + Skittles = Sweet Success!
Mrs. Shivley's 4th graders had a blast this week thanks to a visit from Ohio Hi-Point Career Center! 🍬🛠️ Students put their engineering skills to the test by building Skittles towers, a colorful and creative challenge that introduced basic STEM principles in the sweetest way possible! It was hands-on learning at its finest—full of teamwork, problem-solving, and of course... a few extra Skittles for “quality control.” 😄👏 Thank you to Ohio Hi-Point (and our very own Naaman Stidham) for bringing this fun experience to our students! We love seeing future engineers in action! 🧡 #SkittlesTowers #STEMFun #FutureEngineers #WLSProud #OhioHiPoint #SweetLearning

🧡📐 Math + Creativity = The Perfect Combo! 📐🧡
After a busy week of state testing, our 7th grade math students took some time to unwind and get creative, all while reviewing key geometry concepts!
Students designed their own iPhone-style backgrounds and even sketched out their dream summer vacation plans (yes… we saw a few beaches! 🏖️), all while incorporating the geometry skills they’ve been learning throughout the year.
It was a fun and engaging way to decompress, reinforce learning, and get ready for their upcoming end-of-year capstone project!
Great work, 7th graders. Learning never looked so fun! 🧡🐾
