๐งผ๐ฆ Our Kindergarten Scientists are at it again! This exciting lesson was all about GERMS and the sense of TOUCH! ๐๐ฌ Students learned how germs spread and the importance of proper hand washing through a fun, hands-on experimentโseeing the โgermsโ on their hands before and after washing! ๐๐ฆ To top it off, they even created their own germ models! A fun and memorable way to explore science while building their understanding of Responsibility, one of our core Cambridge learner attributes! ๐๐ #BCEgators #LearningInAction #UnstoppableTogether









๐ขOur 3rd grade BCE Gators are diving deep into math with collaboration, critical thinking, and conversation! ๐ฌ
Through the Cambridge Learner Attribute: Engagement, students are working together to solve challenging problems and increase mathematical discourse by asking questions, explaining thinking, and building off each otherโs ideas. ๐
We love seeing our learners engaged, empowered, and excited about math! ๐

๐จ Our Kindergarten Super Scientists were hard at work using their sense of sight to explore the magic of color mixing! ๐
By combining primary colors, they discovered how to create new, exciting colors โ all while thinking creatively and testing their ideas like true innovators.
This hands-on science fun also ties perfectly to the Cambridge Learner Attribute: Innovation, as our young learners experiment, explore, and imagine new possibilities. ๐
Way to go, Kindergarten innovators!๐ฌ

๐ Our 4th grade Gators are putting their learning into action! As part of Benchmark Unit 1: Observing Nature, students designed their own bird feeders ๐ฆ๐ฟ. Not only did they explore how animals interact with their environment, but they also took their creations home to observe the feathered friends visiting for a free lunch.
๐ Through this project, students connected their reading to science and considered different perspectivesโseeing nature through the eyes of both the observer and the animals themselves.
