Our 2nd grade Ss used their understanding of equality to help Dru & Teller design agate belts! Ss Pear Deck slides were displayed on the Smartboard as they explained their strategy. #ProjectM2 @GunstonElem @fcpsaap
Is the sister a sissy? Why or why not? Ss had an opportunity to consider the perspectives of others as they shared their ideas and reasoning in breakout/small groups. @GunstonElem @fcpsaap @FCPSR3

Our 5th graders worked as communicators as they discussed personification and shared inferences. They recorded their thinking on Pear Deck and used their notes to support discussions in breakout groups/small groups. @GunstonElem @fcpsaap @FCPSR3

Our 4th graders worked as communicators and shared their ideas in partner/breakout groups. They collaborated throughout the Jacob’s Ladder to make inferences about the character and reflect on the theme of the poem. Zoom in for Ss thoughtful responses! @GunstonElem @fcpsaap

Engage in Creative and Critical Thinking (CCT) using questioning. Questioning is the process of exploring, challenging, and assessing ideas. Take a picture or draw something around your house. What do you see, think, or wonder? Tag @fcpsaap to share your picture and questions!
Valentine’s Day treats delivered to our classroom doors. Thank you for the treats Mrs. Rucinski & @clwhite1907! 💕 @GunstonElem
Our kinders had so much fun observing shadows and sharing their ideas with others today! Lesson link: bit.ly/2OJ7SGp
Kindergarten students @GunstonElem use their sight senses to observe how shadows change when the light source moves (clarion science - How the Sun Makes Our Day) @fcpsaap
Day 1 of LEGO Robotics was SO much fun! 🙂

What might Jacob’s Ladder look and sound like in a primary classroom? Come and take a peek! @fcpsaap @GunstonElem
Our kinders rocked their first Jacob’s Ladder! They cut and colored picture cards for their morning work. They then used these cards during the lesson to sequence the important events and retell the story in their own words. @GunstonElem @fcpsaap
Our 3rd grade chemical engineers tested out their water filtration devices today and were pretty happy with the results! They already have a plan for the improvements that they’re going to make to their prototypes next week! @fcpsaap @GunstonElem @FCPSSTEAM
Examining the qualities of play dough is so much fun! These chemical engineers are identifying ideal properties in order to create their own play dough! @GunstonElem @fcpsaap @FCPSSTEAM
Gunston students are hooked on coding! They shared strategies and feedback to help each other work through challenges today. @GunstonElem @FCPSSTEAM
Harnesses, moving joints, and sockets. Oh my! The biomedical engineers at @centreridgees worked through the Engineering Design Process and applied creative and critical thinking to improve the prostheses of their para athlete clients! @FCPS_Summer #FCPSCuriousMinds

The work of engineers is never done! The biomedical engineers at @WoodburnES shared their prototypes and asked for specific feedback to help them to improve their prostheses. @FCPS_Summer @MsMannoFCPS #FCPSCuriousMinds
There’s nothing better than learning from the experts! Thank you Chris Gagen for teaching us about engineering, and giving us pointers on how to draw blueprints of our skyscrapers from multiple viewpoints! @FCPS_Summer @GrahamRoadES @HutchisonEagles #FCPSCuriousMinds
Our Bridge to K students had the best summer ever! Thank you teachers for giving our young learners a sneak peek at what’s to come this school year! #FCPSB2K @FCPS_Summer @CrestwoodElem @HutchisonEagles @GrahamRoadES
These Young Scholars at @WilliamHalleyES used their mechanical engineering skills to design sailboats that catch the wind. Here they are working through the Test and Improve phases of the Engineering Design Process to improve their prototypes! @FCPS_Summer #FCPSYoungScholars
