FOUNDING FAMILIES

Student's working hard on their "Keeping Room" dioramas.

Professional Development Science and NGSS

Mrs Ferreira and I spent Tuesday unpacking new science units designed to meet the  Next Generation State Standards or NGSS.  These units are hands on units that aim to make kids think deeply about a topic.  On Tuesday we were discussing how to build a wall that will last.  We discussed both materials and types of mortar.  We built it and then we got to wreck it!
