🌕🌑 *Oreo Moon Phases Lab: 5th Graders Explore the Wonders of the Moon!* 🌑🌕
Our 5th graders had a blast today as they explored the phases of the moon using Oreos! They got to create and understand the different phases of the moon (new moon, crescent, first quarter, gibbous, and full moon) by removing the creme of the Oreo and turning them into mini models. It was a fun and delicious way to bring science to life!









First graders went on a field trip to Aqua Zoo in Lynchburg. They were able to see, feed, and pet many different animals.






🌞🔋 Bright ideas in action! 5th grade students built solar-powered houses to explore the power of the sun! ☀️🏠 They wired their creations with conductive tape, LEDs, and even a motor, bringing their designs to life. ⚡🔧
