Luckily these 2nd graders at @JeterElem celebrated #StPatricksDay before the break with a fun addition and subtraction review!

Learning Newton’s laws of motion is easier when you make them happen yourself!

Learning doesn't stop when the last bell of the day rings at Glenn York Elementary.
Any given day of the week, the halls are still filled with laughter and excitement after the school day ends as different clubs meet to give students the chance to focus on fun enrichment opportunities.
But the quietest club meets every week in the library and when they get to practicing, you can't hear a peep!
York's American Sign Language club is teaching students to communicate with just their hands and facial expressions #AllinAlvinISD.
Parent volunteer Roxann Coffman, a certified deaf education and ASL teacher, leads the group and is continually impressed by how quickly the kids pick up words and phrases.
As a group, the club learned the ASL alphabet in less than an hour, much faster than some of the adult classes she's taught in the past, Coffman said.
Earlier this month, they spent time learning Valentine's Day-themed signs and then played a game of bingo to test their skills.
It's Go Texan Day! Let's see those cowboys and cowgirls!
