Eagles in 1st at it again -- building those scientific and investigative skills while learning about seeds during a lima bean experiment.






Engaged Eagles connecting and learning across the day. Check out their focus during morning meeting, math, literacy and teacher PLC!











Engaged in ELA whole group literacy lessons in 5th with teacher modeling and embedded text annotations to integrate writing across the day.










Our 75-minute math block is on a roll. Teachers and students are finding their flow with differentiated instruction during whole group, small group and intentional partner-based tasks engaging in building fact fluency games and personalized iReady pathways.











A little science adding an energizing spark to our Eagles' day in a bio-mimicry way!










We had some happy smiles last week on hat day! Had to share!











Teachers and staff have been full of educator energy this year. Last week's PD launched with a 2nd Grade team-led connection time, a quick-paced game of hot potato, and a focused time together celebrating strong implementation of Benchmark Advance for literacy. This week at PLCs, teachers are digging into our next steps with small group math interventions through personal and direct experiences! What an Eagletastic team we have here at Mside STEM! True lead learners that keep on learning!
