In and around the classrooms
 
Animal Groups
Connection sounded like a barn yard as students used only animal sounds to organize themselves into groups. Mr. Miller explained that it is easier to attract and relate to people like us, but that Jesus calls us to seek out and so love all types of people.

Mathematical Art
Geometry and Trigonometry students use math equations to create string art and house floor plans. 






Twinkling Stars
Second graders learn that the stars only look like they are twinkling because of how the light reflects and refracts off the moving air particles in the Earth's atmosphere. 




Roman Innovation
In their study of ancient Rome, fifth grade history students model Roman innovation in architecture, military operations, and agriculture.
