Science + Ice Cream = Learning!
Our second grade scientists had a sweet time putting their learning into action during our Changes in Matter unit! Students made their very own ice cream while observing how matter can change from a liquid to a solid.
They had so much fun mixing, shaking, and watching their ingredients transform right before their eyes! It was the perfect hands-on way to connect our science learning to a delicious treat.

Today our Bears wore red, white, and blue to honor First Responders and Patriot Day. Today, we remember 9/11.
Today, our 2nd grade students had the opportunity to visit McKinney Roots Farm for a fun and educational hands-on experience! Students learned about how seeds are planted and grow, as well as how chickens live and lay eggs. They even had the opportunity to feed the chickens!
Our students also explored a beautiful peach orchard and learned more about growing fruit. To top it all off, they got to taste one of the farm’s delicious fresh peaches!
It was a wonderful day filled with hands-on learning, exploration, and memorable experiences for our Bennett Bears!
