Third Grade is back in the Science Lab, studying renewable and non-renewable natural resources. They talked about how water wheels turn the energy of moving water into power. The students used everyday materials to make their own functional water wheels. Science is cool!

Wesley Prep Primer students participated in the "Magic Milk" experiment during Science Lab today - students were able to witness colored soap molecules attaching to the fat molecules in the whole milk. The process looked like fireworks going off because of all the movement! Hands-on Learning is Cool!

Wesley Prep PreK 4s students learned all about the body! They created a wearable poster and hat which included: a brain, heart, stomach (with food to be digested), intestines, and super cool lungs that can be inflated! Hands-on learning is fun!

Our Primer, First, and Second Graders gave an amazing performance of "A Little Night Music" - this program was a great way to show off all they have learned about music so far. Wesley Prep's music program incorporates the Orff Method, this enabled the students to take an active role in arranging one of the pieces of music included in the show. BRAVO!

Thank you to Woodhill Dental for helping our Early Childhood students with a lesson on the importance of brushing your teeth! Each child had the chance to brush Jeff's teeth (the big bear) with a giant tooth brush! Joyful Learning!

Our Fifth Graders brought American History to life during Night at the Museum! The event was the culmination of a six-week research project which allowed the students to immerse themselves in the lives of their subjects.

Do you need an electrician? Call a Wesley Prep 4th Grader! The students built cardboard replicas of famous Texas landmarks - and brought them to life with electrical lights. Additionally, each student created, wired, and decorated a question-and-answer circuit board.

It was Game Time in the Third Grade Classrooms during Night at the Museum last week - the students created fun midway games using their knowledge of simple machines. Each game incorporated at least two of the simple machines (inclined plane, wedge, screw, lever, pulley, and wheel-and-axle). Hands-on Learning is cool!

Our PreK 4s students are talking about how important our brains are as the control center for our bodies. Students also talked about how important it is to be careful and to protect our brains.
