Mrs. Ramirez

Using @brainingcamp to #countatoms today. What a great way to show molecules and help students understand coefficients! #thestrausway @NISDMSScience

We had a super successful #CareerDay! Thank you so much to all the presenters, volunteers, and administration for all the work and time that went into such a great day!! #StrausMavericks #TheStrausWay

FLL Robotics- February 11th Straus Middle School Looking for volunteers to assist with registration, team logistics, referee of the robot game or judging the team innovation project. Volunteer minimum age is 14. drive.google.com/file/d/1h7K6li…

"Periodically" we (teachers) make mistakes, but our student's element posters are the best! #science #thestrausway #ScienceTwitter #chemistry @delgadoscience

Molding student's minds and Plate Tectonic Boundary Movement! Thanks to our Straus' parents for donating playdoh! #thestrausway @NISDStraus #ScienceTwitter #teachingscience #platetectonics

Look what we did today! We played this fun twist of Connect 4 to review for our benchmark test! As a team, students put their answers on @Postit notes. After 3 questions, we check to see which notes get knocked out. 4 in a row gets points ! @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience #sciencefun

Who said art and science shouldn't go together?! Straus science always providing students with cross curricular opportunities. Geology Vocabulary Micro-painting! @Sci_Ramirez @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience

Channeling out inner Bob Ross with some water painting! Vocabulary micro-painting. Geology Unit #ScienceTwitter #Geology #scienceeducation @delgadoscience @NISDStraus

Speed Lab was a hit! Calculating for Speed Races included marble release, @Hot_Wheels, parachute men dropped from the breezeway, running, and for our biggest @astros fan @delgadoscience pitching speed! @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience #sciencelabs #Science

We have to spill the BEANS ! These birds are really after the bean-bugs! Environmental changes including eruptions, deforestation, non-native birds, and earthquakes are causing bean-bugs to decline in population. @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience #funscience #ecosystems @delgadoscience

Graphing out Predator- Prey Relationships @delgadoscience @NISDStraus #teamstraus @NISDMSScience

Our Mavericks are Stars! Learning and creating the life cycle of a star . #thestrausway #msscience #handsonscience

The day turned out to be beautiful so we decided to take our learning outside!!!!! @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience @Sci_Ramirez

Chalking it up the the moon 🌙 . Classroom is outside today! Seasons & moon phases #nisdmsscience #thestrausway #nisdstraus

Students once again excited about chemistry! Breakout Day was a success! Great teamwork with @delgadoscience. Thanks to our @NISDStrausLib for lending your @breakoutEDU boxes! @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience

When I missed recording them run with excitement with their lockbox, they were good sports and decided to redo it. This time in slow motion. @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience #thestrausway #breakoutrooms #middleschool

SO much valuable learning is taking place today thanks to all of our volunteers! @NISDStraus @NISDStrausPTA @NISD @NISDCounseling #StrausCareerDay #TheStrausWay

Mixing it up, once again! Looking for chemical reaction indicators! @NISDStraus @NISDMSScience

Lab Morning was going hectic till this student brought his teachers TACOS!!! Yum! @NISDStraus
