Students in Mrs. Burke’s 5th-grade class explored plant and animal cells this past week by building models and comparing organelles in both! Hands-on learning like this helps deepen their understanding as they write about each structure’s function. #WildAboutLearning #WCESWarriors

I am pleased to share a recent hands-on learning experience from Ms. Amerson's and Ms. L. Cooper's homeroom science classes, where students engaged in an immersive exploration of ecosystems right beneath their feet. During this activity, the students dug deep into leaf litter to uncover a variety of biotic (living) and abiotic (nonliving) components that make up an ecosystem. This hands-on approach not only sparked their curiosity, but also provided them with valuable insights into the intricate relationships within the natural world. The enthusiasm displayed by our students as they discovered various elements of the ecosystem was truly remarkable, highlighting the importance of experiential learning in fostering a deeper understanding of scientific concepts. We look forward to more engaging activities that inspire our students' love for science and their appreciation for nature.

Our 3rd graders are WILD about our learning in Science class. They discussed the 5 Georgia Regions and created a project. After an in-depth lesson on each region, students chose the area they wanted to learn more about. Each student had to complete a travel log containing information about the culture, land features, location, plants and animals, and any famous or important places in that region! Thank you for being WILD about learning at WCES!
