Alvarado's CRES 3rd Masters Liquid, Solid, Gas

Understanding the properties of liquids, solids, and gas is one of the basic building blocks of Science and last week at Camino Real Elementary we got the chance to see students gaining--and mastering-- that understanding. Third-grade teacher Nancy Alvarado masterfully put her Roadrunners through a pair of activities that, first, showed they understood the properties, then challenged them to independently illustrate their understanding. Prior learning was clear and Alvarado's students were both enthusiastic about demonstrating it--and committed to meeting their teacher's high expectations!

CRES Choir Offers up Great Holiday Performance!
