In Mrs. Allgood's class, The 2018-19 school year started with a bang! Well, maybe a little bridge building instead of a bang. We discussed what engineers do and how their jobs are very important to our every day lives. Students were given a scenario for building a bridge and were given materials to build this bridge. Their bridge had to span a distance of 3 feet and they could only use the materials in their project box. They were given straws, craft sticks, yarn or string, and tape. There were some sturdy looking bridges built and there were some really scary looking bridges as well. Overall, the students learned the importance of working as a team and making sure everyone in the group had a voice. This was just the beginning of our build challenges, there will be more to come as the school year progresses.

Mrs. Light's math class has been concluding our geometry study with quadrilaterals. Students worked in groups and were given a quadrilateral to to draw, define, and tell what types of angles and sides each had. The students were able to show off their creativity and knowledge by creating a poster. Once they had discovered this information, they reinforced their knowledge by playing quadrilateral spoons. This game is played similarly to the card game spoons. Students had to match two pictures of the figure, the word and the definition during the game. Now, every day they ask if we can play quadrilateral spoons!

Beebe Middle School Pancake Breakfast
Ms. Redman's classes are enjoying reading Saving Wonder, our first read-aloud of the year. We have also been reviewing summaries, story elements, grammar, vocabulary, and spelling. I love how excited these students are about reading! It's going to be a great year!
5th grade math students at Beebe Middle School went on a scavenger hunt this week taking pictures of various geometric shapes they encountered along the way with our Chromebooks. These pictures were dropped into our shared Google Classroom and then displayed on the Sharp Board back in class for identification and classification.
Mrs. Vaden's 5th grade Social Studies classes have been investigating the 5 Themes of Geography. On a recent scavenger hunt in the "Beebe Middle School" region, students observed elements of the 5 Themes. Students will be able to transfer this knowledge to the state of Arkansas, The United States, North America, and the world as we delve into History Alive! The United States through Industrialism.
