Our intrepid K-5 Science Supervisor greeting our new teachers and starting their day of training with a smile. @HCPSElemScience @WeAreHAEST

Ms. Hoffman's 4 classes at Mort wrap up their 2nd Long term Investigation - Under the Dome. Sdts keep data in their notebooks. All classes' data are displayed on charts so they can compare data from all classes and talk about trends/patterns. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

So grateful to Hillsborough Education Foundation for supplying our Elementary Science Leaders with STEM resources for their instruction. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience @Hillsedufnd

The love of Science happens at an early age. At Science Olympics, we've hooked a new engineer! Science is engaing and fun! @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Students at Science Olympics at MOSI take advantage of all the free events after their heats including math games, the G.A.B.I.E bus and flying drones. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

We did it! Students at Anderson Elem used their understanding of force and energy to win their heat at the Science Olympic! Great job engineers! (Supported by their AP ms. Kim @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Students in Ms. Long's class at Mendenhall use their self-created vocabulary cards to ensure they are using the correct words in their science reflection. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

4th grade students in Ms. Kirchheimer's class at Mendenhall created a model with their bodies to make the work of a hydroelectric dam visible. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Students in Mrs. Longs 5th grade class at Mendenhall were so excited to observe how a charged balloon could attract a can without touching it. Students explain the difference between the balloons. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

4th grade students in Mrs. Kirchheimer's class at Mendenhall Elem take charge of their Long Term Investigation to make both measurable and non-measurable observations. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

The fifth grade students in Ms. Long's class at Mendenhall Elem presented their blueprints to the class and received feedback in the form of student questions. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Students in Ms. Colon's classes at Mendenhall Elem create anchor charts to demonstrate their understanding of science concepts. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Teachers across the district gather for a STEM training to practice the LEGO robotics lessons they will implement to support their grade level standards. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Ms. Walker's 1st grade super scientists @Mort_Manatees completed their first science mini-assessment. They owned their own thinking then pasted it in their science notebooks.

3rd grade scientists in Mrs. Humphrey's class at Mort Elementary explore tools of measurement to establish common science academic vocabulary. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Mrs. Boone's first graders at Mort Elementarry learn how to use a hand lens to make observations. @wearehaest @HCPSElemScience

Kindergarten teachers Fountain and Nirwan create ribbon bookmarks and add folders to their student science notebooks to help their students organize their thoughts. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Love exploring Florida Wildlife with our non-science focused educators. Can you imagine meeting an animal, learning its story then writing a new narrative. Look inside the crook of the tree to see a "friend" our coaches met. 2/2 @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

Always great to visit Nature's Classroom and learn about the native Florida wildlife given a safe home since these animals can't survive in the wild. Learn new things every time. 1/2 @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience

The students in Ms. Chauvin's class at Dickenson challenged me, "How quickly can you find the 15 butterflies in these images? Which ones were camouflaged the best?" Your turn. @WeAreHAEST @HCPSElemScience
