Welcome to our Hive!
My name is Mrs. Smith and this is my second year at Salyers, however, I have taught 5th grade science for nine! I am delighted to be guiding your scholar through the wonders of the natural world as we prepare for 5th Grade Science STAAR. I hope they will enter into middle school as curious, independent thinkers with problem solving skills.
Flipped Classroom Learning Environment
Students rotate between two groupings each day, spending half of their time working through digital lessons and virtual labs, then spending the rest in a small group setting with their teacher mastering vocabulary and content through a variety of activities.
Weekly Hands On Science Activities
Students will have the opportunity to gain valuable skills with weekly hands on and lab investigations, including measurement, data collection, problem solving, team building, and engineering challenges.
2022-2023 Science Olympiad Champions
For the first time ever, the Salyers Cubs competed in and won the Spring ISD Science Olympiad. I am so proud of the hard work our students put in, and am looking forward to coaching another team this year as we defend our title.
