We started a new unit this year in science! We introduced extracting fossils and taking care of the environment with a mini challenge! @canSTEM#BeCannonProud
@canSTEM administration is the best! Our BOY fundraiser was a hit & the winning grade level teachers got to pie us! Thanks to all donors! Huge applause for Kathy Spradley, our fantastic school board trustee liaison, for always showing up and supporting our events! #weareGCISD
We started our isopod city unit design challenge and got a class reward to build forts! In this challenge, students will solve the problem:
How might we as civil and electrical engineers design a city that provides lighting and transportation for the isopod citizens? @canSTEM
Hands on learning is the best way to learn during the last month or school!Today students are using their knowledge of WWII to create a poster. I love seeing their creativity. @canSTEM#Cannonproud
Today we went to the garden and learned all about the vegetables growing! Thank you third graders for teaching us how to take care of plants properly! 🌱🥕@canSTEM
Today students had the chance to lead by teaching our newest math vocabulary with their own slides! This was such an engaging way to introduce our geometric figures unit. @canSTEM#cannonproud
We had an amazing day traveling to the Texas State Capitol and touring the Inner Space Caverns. My students were so engaged in their learning and were excited to share their knowledge on topics we’ve learned in class. What a great day!❤️ @canSTEM#Cannonproud
Today we looked at an exemplar for an ECR! They had the chance to use a grading rubric and pretend to be a grader. My students were so engaged! @canSTEM
It’s time to introduce the first Star of GCISD for 2024: Ms. Donaldson from @canSTEM. Her nomination highlighted how she "constantly listens to and supports her coworkers with their problems, whether it is a family emergency, problems with students, or just a hard day.”
Last week we had a class discussion on creating personal goals to be our BEST in the classroom. While talking, they came up with writing their goals on puzzle pieces so that we could create a display of this conversation. Today we made their discussion come to life! @canSTEM 🧩
