Ms. Hennessy's Class

We can forgive the snow when we see this sweet “Be Kind” message carved into it by students, right!? ❤️#bsdwildcatproud

So #grateful to have gotten to meet the author of #evolvingwithgratitude @lainierowell What a pleasure to hear her insight about gratitude in school communities and beyond. So inspired.

Learning about camouflage as an adaptation. The “birds” missed out on eating many of our moths because of the amazing camouflage creation. #scienceisfun #hennessyclass

Parachuting Beaver Engineering Challenge Test Day! We made lots of predictions & observations. We also did plenty of reflecting on our designs. So fun! #hennessyclass

Is it possible I am more excited than the kids about our parachuting beavers engineering challenge?! Yes, yes it it. 😁 #hennessyclass

Small group time is my favorite part of the day. We had rousing games of Bananagrams and Once Upon a Time to sharpen some of our ELA skills! #hennessyclass

Analyzing primary sources from the Idaho Gold Rush era. Observing, inferring, and questioning. #hennessyclass

Fraction line plots are way more fun when we collect our own data!! #hennessyclass
