Our students are becoming robot coders in STEM! 🤖

Students were introduced to our Root Robots and learned the basics of how to make them move and follow directions using code. They had to create their own code, test it out, and go back to fix things when their robots didn't do what they expected.

Problem-solving was a BIG part of this lesson! Students worked together, shared ideas, helped one another, and learned that sometimes it takes a few tries to get things just right. They practiced teamwork, critical thinking, and perseverance while learning the basics of coding.

We are excited to see where their coding adventures take them next! 🤖💻

Our 1st grade students took time to learn about and honor our veterans! ❤️

We read It's Veterans Day and talked about the different branches of the Armed Forces and what it means to serve our country. Students also shared family members who have served in the military. After our discussion, they created special hearts using torn pieces of paper to give to our veterans at the Veterans Day breakfast.

We are so proud of our students for taking the time to show their appreciation and help honor the brave men and women who have served our country! ❤️🤍💙

Mrs. Cano's JH Art class learned about the art career of interior design and the principle of design, unity, and making 3D rooms. In their mini 3D rooms, students are creating unified designs and then constructing miniature furniture, designing wallpaper, selecting textiles, and arranging the furniture to demonstrate their understanding of the art term unity as well as their understanding of what an interior designer does as a career. Completed projects will be on display in the art room hallway and will be posted in the next few weeks. Be on the lookout!

Mrs. Cano's Art 3 students are currently making creative clocks from cardboard with the idea that they can make a 3D sculpture that is functional or simply made for aesthetic purposes, that they can identify the difference between additive and subtractive methods in art, and know the difference between positive and negative space. Students studied the art of Salvador Dali, Felix Gonzalez Torres, and ManRay to try to understand the significance of time in their art themes. Stay tuned for their final pieces and pay attention to the times each student picks. There will also be a song associated with the time on the clock that each student chooses. The time and the song will be something that is specific and unique to each student. Creativity is flowing at HN!

Our 3rd graders spent time in STEM learning about Veterans Day and discussing the importance of honoring the men and women who have served our country. After our discussion, students created their own stained glass artwork using tissue paper and contact paper, with a silhouette in the center. Each project was a special way to show creativity while recognizing and honoring our veterans!

🐾 Second Grade Writers with a BIG Heart! 🐶❤️

Our second grade students recently had the opportunity to visit the Hardin County Animal Shelter, where they learned all about the important work the shelter does for animals and our community. Their visit sparked some inspiration, and our students were eager to put their writing skills to work!

Each student was assigned a dog currently available for adoption and got straight to work writing detailed descriptions to help these adorable pups find their forever homes! They used their creativity, descriptive language, and writing skills to bring each dog's personality to life. Who knows? Their writing might just help one of these sweet pups find their perfect family! 🏡🐕

A HUGE thank you to the Hardin County Animal Shelter for welcoming us into your facility, teaching us about all that you do, and providing pictures and helpful bullet points about each dog. Your support helped make this writing project extra special and meaningful for our students!
