🧬🔍 Honors Biology: ADI Lab Argumentation Session ✨🎓 Mrs. Markert's Honors Biology students just completed Stage 5 of their ADI Lab on Meiosis—the share session! 💡 ADI (Argument-Driven Inquiry) takes learning to the next level with multiple stages over several days. Students constructed their arguments to answer a guiding question and presented their findings on giant whiteboards 🖍️. Through a gallery walk, classmates explored each presentation, engaging in discussions and sharpening their critical thinking and presentation skills. 🎤👏 A fantastic way to show what you know and grow in science and communication! 🌟 Great job, everyone! #TPND #WeAreCarroll #ScienceInAction #MeiosisMadeSimple #Teamwork #CriticalThinking #HonorsBiology

Our Carroll CTE program had the pleasure of hosting 6th-grade students from Tom Browne Middle School in our shop! 🛠️ This amazing opportunity allowed our future Tigers to get a hands-on lesson in worksite safety and the skills that our Career and Technical Education (CTE) program offers.🥽🔨 With guidance from our Carroll students and staff, the 6th graders even built birdhouses 🐦 and got a glimpse into the incredible pathways available to them. This was an unforgettable experience for everyone involved and we’re excited to see the bright futures of both our current and future students! Thank you to Mr. Delgado and Mr. Holland for facilitating this unique and unforgettable experience!🌟👏💙🩵🐅 #TPND #WeAreCarroll #FutureBuilders #CTE #construction #woodworking

📚✨ Exploring Culture Through Reading: ENG 2 Honors Projects ✨📚 Our English 2 Honors students with Mrs. Zimmerman have spent the first part of the school year diving into books that explore the theme of cultural understanding. 🌍📖 After choosing a book from the list, they engaged in book club discussions, quizzes, and assignments to deepen their insight and critical thinking. Now that they’ve finished, it’s time for the grand finale—creating Bloom Balls! Each Bloom Ball reflects students’ critiques on cultural significance, reviews of the book, illustrations of the setting, and more. 🌸🎨 We’re excited to display these amazing projects in the classroom and throughout the hallway to celebrate their hard work! Big shoutout to Ms. Weber for this fantastic project idea! 👏 #ENG2H #CulturalUnderstanding #BloomBalls #ProjectShowcase #TPND #WeAreCarroll

🌍🧱 Learning Landforms with LEGO Bricks! 🧱🌍 Our AE students are getting hands-on with geography in a fun, creative way!
