🔢 Teamwork + Competition = Learning in Action! 🧠🤝
Our 8th grade students in Mrs. Thompson’s class put their teamwork, communication, group discussion, and pattern-seeking skills to the test with a Numbered 100 task! Working together in groups, students took turns circling numbers in order from 1 to 100. The challenge? The numbers were scattered across the board in a variety of font styles, requiring students to communicate, strategize, and work together to find each number. Our students enjoyed the friendly competition while demonstrating great teamwork and collaboration! Activities like this provide valuable opportunities to build skills that extend far beyond the classroom. 👏📚

🩺 Learning by doing in Principles of Biomedical Science! 🔬
In Mrs. Macon’s Principles of Biomedical Science classes, students took turns stepping into the roles of both provider and patient. Through this hands-on activity, students practiced important clinical skills while working through their patients’ checklists. We’re proud to share that many of our “providers” were able to successfully check off all 5 target points on their patients’ checklists! 👏 Great work, future healthcare professionals! 💙
