Loachapoka Elementary School

Third graders in Mrs. Credo’s ELA classes are growing as readers and developing a true love for books! We are so proud to see their excitement, confidence, and passion for reading continue to grow!

Our fifth-grade mathematicians used place-value blocks to build and represent decimal numbers. They did an excellent job strengthening their understanding of decimals through hands-on learning!

First-grade students read The Very Hungry Caterpillar and created a variety of addition equations to represent everything the caterpillar ate. We have some very smart caterpillars in first grade!

Students in Ms. Wilson-Woody’s sixth-grade math classes put their creativity to work! Using a choice board, students created games, problems, or songs to demonstrate their understanding of GCF, LCM, the distributive property, and area models. Learning math can be fun!

Exciting 5th Grade Science Experiment
Fifth graders discovered that plants need only sunlight, air, and water to thrive! To demonstrate this, we grew Lima beans in ziplock bags using just a paper towel and water!🌿🌱

📚📖Additional reading time allows students to enhance their fluency and expand their vocabulary. Here are some sweet Third graders reading in class before it's time to head home.
