Our young scientists in Mrs. Perez-Estrada's class at Truman School are mastering STEM concepts! They ran a hands-on experiment, using cups to model how the Earth's surfaces (such as soil vs. water) heat up and cool down at different rates. This skill is key to understanding global weather and wind patterns! #NHPS

An amazing group of Truman School third graders, including both bilingual and regular students, had an inspiring day at the Yale University Art Gallery!
Students explored the museum on a guided tour, discovering art in new ways by closely examining paintings and sculptures, focusing on colors, shapes, and form.
The best part? They became artists themselves! Through fun, hands-on activities, students created their own incredible art collages using felt , putting their artistic observations into practice. A fantastic day of creative learning!
Thanks to the Education Department at #yaleartgallery for organizing the trip and the activities for our students. #NHPS

Third grade students in Mrs. Pasan's room at Truman School aren't just memorizing facts—they're building a deep understanding of multiplication by creating Arrays Puzzles!
This activity requires them to connect different representations:
Visual Arrays (rows\times columns)
Repetitive Sums (equal groups/skip counting) and
Formal Equations
By successfully linking these pieces, they show they know exactly how multiplication can be represented.
