Students in Mrs. Landon's class used their math and problem solving skills to create a penguin house. They were given a budget to buy materials and used previous knowledge from experiments to find the best materials to keep their ice penguins alive.🧊They collaborated together to build their houses and tested them out in the lab. 💡Each class crowned a winner who were treated to a special prize! 🐧
Students in Mrs. West's class have been learning about Westward Expansion and created wagons from tasty treats! 🗺️🧭

👩🔬🧑🏼🔬Our 6th grade science classes have been learning about thermal energy.🔥 They tested out plastic spoons and metals spoons 🥄to see which would keep the ice 🧊 from melting the most in a trial. Guess which one won? #BeechSprings #Science
Mrs. Collins classes have been studying Westward Expansion. Last week they took a hands on approach and made wagons from food items. The best part was the ending when they got to taste their creations! 🤤😋 #BeechSprings #Socialstudies
🏠Our Home Economics group had the halls smelling delicious this afternoon. 👃👃They learned to write a recipe, follow the recipe using measuring tools, prep their food and toppings, and then eat their tasty creation! Today they made tacos, spanish rice, and beans. 🌮🌮 #WeAreD5 #BeechSprings
Mrs. Mitchell's class debated whether Ancient Athens or Ancient Sparta would have been a better city state to live in. 🌆🇬🇷 #BeechSprings
Our 6th graders have been learning about heat transfer and took their learning to the lab. 🧑🏼🔬👩🔬 They cooked popcorn using three different methods, then identified which method of transfer took place. 🔥 And to finish it off, they ate the popcorn. 🍿🍿 #BeechSprings
Mrs. Brannon's class worked with mixtures and solutions today. What a fun hands on approach to learning!! 🧪👩🔬🧑🏼🔬 #BeechSprings
