Engineering in Action: Cereal Spoon Innovation 🥣
Our 4th Grade Comets put their engineering skills to the test during the Create and Improve stages of the design process! Their mission? Design a custom cereal spoon that lets milk drain back into the bowl while keeping the cereal right where it belongs. Students tested a variety of spoon designs and hole sizes to discover which combination performed best. Way to innovate, Comets! ☄️✨

🎨Creativity in Action in the CCE Art Room!
Our Comet artists have been busy exploring new techniques and styles across all grade levels in Art class with Mrs. Weir!
🖌️Kindergarteners got hands-on with lines! Our youngest artists practiced naming different line types—zigzag, wavy, straight, and loopy—before painting them with bold colors.
🌸2nd Graders dived into vivid folk art inspired by artist Heather Galler, painting bright, patterned flowers that pop off the canvas.
✏️5th Graders tackled a technique challenge with an introduction to charcoal drawing, learning how to manipulate value, shadow, and highlights to create realistic 3D water droplets.
We are so proud of our creative Comets! ☄️✨

When Life Gives You Lemons... Make Science Vocabulary Fun!
Our Kindergarteners at Canyon Creek had a sweet and sour time turning learning into a hands-on experience! While following along with a live demonstration on how to make fresh lemonade, students explored new science and descriptive vocabulary words like observation, liquid, solid, dissolve, temperature, change, and predicition. Learning is always extra refreshing when you can see, hear, taste and talk about the results! 🍋🥤

Science has never tasted so good! 🍿 In science lab this week, our 2nd graders explored the 5 senses using fresh popcorn. Students practiced making scientific observations using sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste. Way to go, young scientists! 🧪✨
