🧪🥨 Learning Science by Mixing It Up! 🥨🧪 Our 5th graders had a blast exploring mixtures and solutions! They got hands-on as they created their own food mixtures and solutions and then completed an experiment to investigate how different substances interact. 🔬✨ It was a fun way to turn science concepts into a hands-on learning experience—and our scientists were definitely mixing, testing, observing, and learning along the way! 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 #BMWFalcons #5thGrade #ScienceIsFun #MixturesAndSolutions #HandsOnLearning #STEM

🏷️ A Friendly Reminder for Our Falcon Families! 💙💛 As we head into the new school year, please remember to label your child’s belongings with their first and last name! Backpacks, jackets, lunchboxes, water bottles, headphones, and other frequently misplaced items are much easier to return when they’re clearly labeled. A simple label = a better chance of getting lost items back to their Falcon! 👏 Thank you for helping us keep our school organized and making it easier to reunite belongings with their owners! 💙💛 Go Falcons! 💙💛
