Math that adds up to real life! Scholars explored how to split a pizza bill/w decimals using a STEMscopes video & a problem solving stimulus. No instructions ,just curiosity, collaboration, & thinking! They took the lead & discovered their own strategies. @JFCarrasco_JCE

Having some fun testing out multiple solutions. Some are acids, some are bases, and some are neutral based on the litmus paper. Just don't drink it the solutions, please! @HAntwine_MS @iGalindo_AMS @MChavez_AMS #TeamSISD #Breakthrough

πŸŽ‰ Academic excellence continues in Socorro ISD! #TeamSISD increased its accountability score to 87, once again earned the postsecondary readiness distinction and posted STAAR/EOC growth across every subject area. With 18 A-rated campuses, 88% of campuses earning A or B ratings, and no D or F rated schools, these results reflect incredible dedication in our district. SISD students also continue to lead the region in multiple tested areas, reflecting the hard work and great support from educators, staff, families, and community. #TheNextChapterIsOurs Read more: sisd.net/article/3077259

It goes without saying that students’ success in secondary is built on the knowledge they gain during their primary years. However, teaching abstract concepts to young children can be really challenging. If you are having a hard time with this, follow @oliviajune82 !
We focus on knowledge-building, but we don't always focus on *how* to do that for early elementary students. This post looks at how to introduce complex science content to our youngest learners. omullins.substack.com/p/how-…
