Making Math Fun in 7th Grade Pre-Algebra! Panthers put their equation-solving skills to the test with a fun, interactive activity focused on solving multi-step equations! 🧮➕✖️
Each student became an "expert" on one equation before partnering with classmates to work through new problems. Students moved around the room, shared strategies, helped each other through challenging steps, and practiced their math skills along the way!
The best part? Seeing students excited to finish an equation and eager to find their next challenge! 🎉
What a great way to make learning engaging, collaborative, and FUN! 🧡🖤

Panthers in Animal Science put their knowledge of animal anatomy to work! 🐄🐎🐕
Each student selected an animal, studied its skeletal structure, and created a full-body model of its skeletal system! This hands-on project gave students a creative way to explore how bones provide structure, support, and movement for different animals.
Can you guess the animals based on their skeleton??? 🦴💀

Oil Spill Cleanup in Mrs. DeMoss’s Class! 🔬🛢️🌊
Our 8th grade scientists took on the challenge of cleaning up an oil spill during a hands-on science experiment!
Panthers worked through the cleanup process by first containing the spill, then skimming the oil from the water, and finally experimenting with dispersing the oil using soap if they chose.
This activity gave students a firsthand look at the challenges of cleaning up oil spills and the different methods used to protect our environment! 🌎🐟
Learning through hands-on experiences! 🧡🖤
