After watching her brother create a how-to video, my Kindergartener asked if she could make one. @fcpsnews folks - watch to see how u get to @Schoology from Chrome! I think it's is pretty good for her first try! Any #fcpsSBTS agree!? #FCPSOnward #WeAllBelongHere @PoplarTreeES♥️

It was a Wacky Wednesday in 4th grade today! #FHESfamily

WOW!! It was an unexpected surprise this morning to come in and find a THIRD chick. Now the Room 111 family officially includes (from left to right) Señor Fluffkins, Darth Vader, and Blaze. Thank you to @MrsKainthWSES for taking care of them this weekend! #FHESfamily

It's official! Room 111 is home to 2 fluffy chicks! We loved learning about the chick's cycle of life and are looking forward to watching them grow! #FHESfamily

Our class got a little bigger today! We watched LIVE as our baby chick hatched and began its new life. #FHESfamily P.S. Anyone have name suggestions? We're thinking Star Wars themed!

Room 111 is rocking! #FHESFamily

The FHES Courtyard Chickens #FHESchickens are back and waiting for visitors👍🏻 Take a class snack break and bring your in person and virtual students out to the courtyard to pay these 9 Ameraucana teenagers a visits🐓🐓🐓 #FHESfamily

A student was excited to share a toy he got for Valentine's Day because he noticed how it was advertised on the back. We just learned about elements of persuasive writing in language arts so it was great to see functional texts in action! #FHESFamily

One of the most important qualities of a teacher is to stay young at heart. Once you stop enjoying time w/ kids, laughing often, enjoying the little things, being inspired by small successes or you start taking yourself too seriously you can lose your joy of teaching.

Wow! During a discussion today about the causes of the American Revolution, a fourth grader compared Patrick Henry to Martin Luther -- they were activists who spoke up and fought for what they believed in! #History #MLK #FHESfamily

Even virtual, we love getting students excited about science!

While learning about ecosystems and how humans affect them, one student pointed out, "Businesses make what people WANT, but might be destroying the things people NEED." Very insightful! We always have to consider how our actions affect our ecosystem. #FHESfamily #Science

Wow! We had so much fun exploring ecosystems with our virtual field trips to zoos and aquariums this week. Our favorite living organisms: manta rays, sharks, koalas, pandas, polar bears and even a platypus! Can't wait to go again! #FHESfamily #science

@ms_grzankowski @mshinFHES So excited! #portraitofagraduate

4th Grade is full of smiles & excitement as we prepare to welcome families to Portrait of a Flint Hill Graduate Night! #fhesfamily #greatexpectations

What an incredible first week of school this was! I was impressed with students' ability to adapt to and conquer the technology available to them. They are certainly proving themselves to be goal-driven and resilient learners! I look forward to an amazing school year! #FHESfamily

It's so wonderful getting to meet my fourth graders and their families this week! Our virtual meet and greets have gotten off to a great start. I'm so excited to start the school year! #FHESFamily #GreatExpectations

“One of life's greatest joys is the comfortable give and take of a good friendship. It's a wonderful feeling not only to have a friend, but to know how to be a friend yourself.”

I am so excited for the upcoming school year! I hope everyone had a wonderful summer, and I can't wait to reconnect with my #FHESFamily!

@VolpiKayleigh Thanks for having us!

Thanks to Ms. Jones’ class, we had a full house for our Oceans PBL presentations! Our scientists creatively informed us about the harmful effects of plastic pollution in our oceans @msjones_fhes #fhesfamily #savetheoceans

Congrats Flint Hill on becoming the 2nd elementary school in the country to receive a lifetime Green Flag award from the National Wildlife Federation! #FHESfamily #NWF #GreenFlag #EcoSchool
