Mrs. Sanders’ 5th grade Science class had a BLAST today! 🎮🌍
Thanks to an awesome collaboration with Hendrix College and Dr. Goadrich, students got to test out a video game about Earth’s spheres created by Hendrix students themselves- and it was definitely a level up for learning! There was tons of excitement, lots of learning, and big smiles all around—such a fun way to learn together!

She is also a student worker in the Office of Student Accessibility and Community, the founder of IEEE, a past president of the Robotics Club at UCA, and a member of the Student Government Association.
Mrs. Norfolk spoke with our G3 girls about the importance of being an individual and pursuing careers that align with their interests and passions. She encouraged students to think about the things they enjoy and how those interests can lead to meaningful career opportunities in the future.
Her story showed our students that there are many unique paths to success. 💁♀️✨

We were excited to welcome Mrs. Maria Negrete Padron, Associate Director for the Office of Student Advocacy and Community.
Mrs. Negrete-Padron spoke with our G3 girls about the benefits of traveling and studying abroad. She shared how exploring new places allows students to experience different cultures, foods, languages, and traditions.
Traveling and studying abroad help students build confidence, independence, and a broader understanding of the world, while also creating unforgettable memories and life experiences.
Her message inspired our girls to think beyond their current surroundings and consider the many opportunities the world has to offer. 👧💖📚

Ms. Kronberg | 5th Grade Math | Math Vocabulary to Build Understanding
When starting our module on fractions, we decided it was important to focus on vocabulary to help students build strong background knowledge. Students first worked with a definition sheet that introduced key fraction terms. They then used those definitions to complete an activity page where they had to identify the type of fraction being described. Once they determined the correct type of fraction, they colored each one using the corresponding color. This activity helped reinforce the vocabulary while also allowing students to visually group and recognize the different types of fractions.

Mrs. Spears | 5th Grade Math | Understanding Vocabulary
We use math-specific vocabulary daily to help students become more familiar and confident with key terms. To support understanding, we connect new vocabulary to students’ background knowledge, such as relating the word plus to addition and minus to subtraction. As we introduce new concepts, we begin with vocabulary study so students understand the language of the concept before applying it. We also provide explicit instruction for each term and include clear examples so students can see how the vocabulary is used in context.
