6th graders in Mr. Walsh's science classes built anemometers and wind vanes to measure wind speed and wind direction as part of their Weather Unit. They also had to develop their own scale to measure wind based on how frequently their anemometer rotated. They were given a criteria list to meet along with constraints. The 6th graders tested them in the classroom with a blow dryer, made improvements, and then we waited for a windy day to test them out.

🌟 Exciting News this Week! 🌟 We’re thrilled to shine the spotlight on Mrs. Koster’s awesome PAWS class! 🎉 This fun-loving crew shares a passion for Dr. Pepper, games, and chilling with *Dug Days* on Disney+. 🫶🏻 This year, they’ve been hard at work creating unique name pennants, adding a special iron-on patch each month. How cool is that? It’s not just a fun team-building experience; it’s a rad keepsake to take home at the year’s end! And last week, we had a delicious adventure taste-testing Blackberry Dr. Pepper! 😋 The verdict? It was a split decision—some loved it, while others thought it tasted a bit like medicine! 🤔 What do you think? Let us know your favorite flavor in the comments! 👇💬 #LikeAChampion #BengalSpotlight #PAWSClass #DrPepperDebate #CreativityInClass

The Clay Center Central Valley Ag brought in a spraying machine to CCCMS today. No, not a real sprayer. Students were able to practice spraying fields in a virtual setting. It was a fun day of "farming" for our kids!

7th grade band was in full gear today! After warm-ups, Mr. Eyermann introduced riffing, which is a repeated sequence of notes or chords in a song. He had volunteers come up and make up a strand of notes and beats that they then turned into a song. Pretty cool to see these young musicians taking shape in a unique way!
