Starry 2nd grade students have been learning about arrays during math. Today they played 'Array Concentration' where they worked with a partner to practice finding the total number of objects in arrays and writing corresponding number models. #starryinspire #misdinspire #edchat






In addition to seeing the layers of the Earth through clay models, 1st graders also did a #CKLA culminating activity where they became archeologists and dug up dinosaurs! #knowledgematters #edchat #starryinspire #misdinspire @amplify









Starry 1st graders completed their History of the Earth unit during their #CKLA knowledge unit with making a model of Earth to see the it's layers! They also had some great discussions in groups! @amplify #knowledgematters #edchat #misdinspire #starryinspire





Our Kindergarten classes were excited to welcome "The History Center" to Starry today. They came and discussed how things have changed in history, from Then & Now. This special visit correlated with our Social Studies Long Ago Unit and our CKLA Colonial Towns Unit. CeCe Rabbit, The History Center’s puppet ambassador, spoke to the kids and they not only made their own personal timelines, but they learned how kids played using vintage toys and got to try some out. It was a fun afternoon!











Help us celebrate School Library Month! The following dress up days are optional but we hope you have fun celebrating reading and our school library! #SchoolLibraryMonth #starryinspire #misdinspire
