Winter Olympics in PE! (Torch relay, Speed Skating, Curling, Bobsled, Skeleton, and Skiing) The students had so much fun!
Recently 4th grade got their hands on some robots! To expand their recent lessons, students were able to bring Dash Robots and the ozobots into the classroom to complete projects. Students used the ozobots to connect to their Earth & Space unit researching and learning about Katherine Johnson and how she used her incredible math skills to help launch a rocket to the moon. #STEAM #MISDSTEAM @McKinneyISD
Thank you North Texas Municipal Water Distrcit for your presentation called "Water 4 Otters"! Our students understand why water conversation and keeping out water clean is so important!
Ms. Halpin helped clean up after her dog to keep our water clean!
This bear saved her Bear Bucks for a coupon at the Bear Mart for "lunch and games with the Principals"! We played "Taco, Cat, Goat, Cheese, Pizza"!
Students earn Bear Bucks from staff for following the Bennett Creed, being kind, working hard, and reaching goals! The store is open on Tuesday morning.
