Receiving her certificate a day early 👏 So proud of all her progress this year. She has grown so much since starting at Madison as kindergartner. 😊 #WeAre44 #madison44

We love working with words. 1st grade discovering new words by building with affixes & bases. 2nd grade investigating the origin of the words from the passage. #WeAre44 #madison44

My 4th graders did an awesome job researching for their biography reports these past few weeks.👏 They were so excited to present what they learned at the bio fair. Proud of them! #weare44 #Madison44

My kindergarten group (1st too) loves looking for our class pet, Monk, every day. Then, they practice prepositions after he's found 👍 "Monk is on the fan," is always a favorite! #weare44 #madison44 #teachingenglish

[Dr. John Spencer @spencerideas]

We often hear phrases like "never give up" or "never quit," but I actually think kids should be learning to ask "When do I quit and when do I continue? When do I pivot on a project? When is it okay to abandon an interest and try something new?"
