Earlier this month, Ms. Hockaday’s third grade class at Flat Rock Elementary put math in motion using coding and Ozobots. Working in pairs, students solved donut shop word problems to unlock secret codes that made their Ozobots perform awesome tricks! 🍩 🤖🎉 The class practiced rounding and estimating and, with help from Ms. Bentzen, our Innovative Learning Coach, they used the Ozobots to check their answers. Each correct answer unlocked a new command for the bots, bringing the classroom to life with fun and learning! 🔢✨#wearepcps #teampowhatan #elevateeducatorsva

🌵💖 At Flat Rock Elementary, Mrs. Dewey's second graders recently focused on learning about kindness and creativity in the library! 📚 They read "Nobody Hugs a Cactus" by Carter Goodrich and made their own heart-themed cacti. 💚🧡 One student shared a thoughtful insight: “You don’t hug them in real life. Not because you don’t like them, but they are prickly.” What a perfect way to remind us that kindness comes in all forms, even when things feel a little prickly! 🌵 #wearepcps #teampowhatan
