A BIG shout-out to Mrs. Keblish’s Art Classes this fall! 👏🎨

Our students have been letting their creativity flow and showing us that there is no limit to what they can imagine, create, and bring to life! 🌈🖌️

From exploring different artistic techniques to putting their own personal touches into their work, our Eagles are learning that art is a place to express themselves, take creative risks, and let their imaginations soar.

We love seeing the creativity, individuality, and joy our students bring to the art room each day! ❤️

Thank you, Mrs. Keblish, for creating a space where our students can explore, create, and discover their inner artists! 🎨👏

🦅 Keep creating, Eagles! Your creativity has no limits!

5th Grade Erosion & Engineering Challenges

Our 5th graders were putting their science knowledge into action during STEAM! 🔬💡

Students explored the effects of erosion through a hands-on investigation using saltines as a model for land. 🧂🌎 By observing how materials break down and change, students were able to see how erosion can affect Earth's surface.

But the learning didn't stop there! Students also became engineers and were challenged to use the available resources to design and build a plow. 🚜

Through these hands-on challenges, our Eagles practiced:

🌎 Understanding the effects of erosion
🔬 Making observations and drawing conclusions
🧠 Problem-solving and critical thinking
🛠️ Using the engineering design process
🤝 Collaborating and communicating with teammates
💡 Designing creative solutions with limited resources

What better way to learn than to experiment, build, test, and learn from the results?

Our 5th graders are proving that when science meets engineering, learning really comes to life!

🦅 ECES Eagles are FULL STEAM AHEAD! 🚀

4th Grade Fall STEAM Centers 🎃🌽

Our 4th graders were FULL STEAM AHEAD during their recent Fall STEAM Centers in Mrs. Marlow’s class! 🍁🔬

Students were placed into collaborative groups and challenged to complete five different hands-on STEAM activities. Each center encouraged students to think creatively, communicate, problem-solve, and work together to build and create.

🎃 Pumpkin Tower – Can you build a tower that stands tall and strong?
🌉 Pumpkin Bridge – Can your team engineer a bridge that can support weight?
🕸️ Web Weaver – Can you create a strong web using teamwork and strategy?
🌽 Cornfield Maze – Can you design and navigate a challenging maze?
🌳 Tree Maker – Can you engineer a tree while working within the design challenge?

Through each challenge, our Eagles practiced important skills like collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, communication, and engineering design—all while having a little fall fun! 🍂💡

We love watching our students learn by doing, build by thinking, and grow by working together!

🦅 ECES Eagles are FULL STEAM AHEAD! 🚀
