🧪 Mrs. Landon’s 8th-grade scientists mixed things up in the lab! Students worked collaboratively to create solutions while putting their measuring skills and ability to follow directions to the test. Precision, teamwork, and a little science made for a great day of learning! 🔬🥼✨

Happy birthday to our 7th grade assistant principal, Ms. McLeer! We are so thankful for all you do and hope you have an amazing day!
Mrs.Linkous' students jumped into a fun Hexagonal Thinking activity as they worked together to make connections, share ideas, and—most importantly—get to know one another!
Activities like this help students discover what they have in common, appreciate each other’s unique perspectives, and begin building the relationships that create a strong classroom community. 🤝
We’re excited to see these connections grow throughout the year and use this strategy for content related activities as well!

🔎👀 Putting Those Observation Skills to the Test! 👀🔎
Mrs. Landon’s classes kicked things off by becoming classroom detectives! 🕵️♀️🕵️♂️ Students plundered through the room (with their eyes, of course 😂), searching for clues about Mrs. Landon and using their observation skills to make inferences about who she is, what she loves, and what might be important to her.
From classroom décor to little details tucked around the room, they quickly learned that scientists can gather A LOT of information just by paying attention! 🔬🧠
It was a great first day at Abner Creek Middle!!
Students in Mrs. Ramsey’s class worked together today to build the tallest straw tower. They were unable to talk and had to use their dominant hand for the first 6 minutes. It taught them teamwork, nonverbal communication, and strengthened critical thinking!
