We are a group of kind, thoughtful, curious, insightful, humorous, and inquisitive fourth and fifth graders just looking to put our stamp on the world!
Today we kicked off our "Water We Doing?" PBL Unit with a Word Cloud, our Water Wonder Wall, and a visit from Scuba Stacy! #WAWMproud@WalkerNxGL#Neverstopwondering
Students chose an I Can statement to teach others something about our world, and each student wrote down their authentic learning during a gallery walk.We can all feel the excitement, pride, and amazement of knowledge! @WalkerNxGL#wawmproud#studentsbecomingteachers
Excellence East getting professional advice from broadcast journalist Earl Arms, collaborating together to write news stories, and creating our first takes of interviews for our first ever WEE News broadcast- stay tuned for more! @WalkerNxGL#WAWMproud#PBL
First try at collaborating with in person and virtual learners. Student would present his/her advertisement, followed by group members giving constructive criticisms and praise. It was AMAZING! @WalkerNxGL#wawmproud#buildingrelationships#deeperlearning
Following our passions in EE! "Cooking" Club made gingerbread houses. Learned how to pipe frosting and add our own flair. They may not all be pretty, but we definitely used grit in making them! @WalkerNxGL#wawmproud#itsnotstandingYET
In our morning meetings, we experience the challenge of an Esti-Mysteries together, testing our math skills and vocabulary to estimate the amount shown. Our student presenter this morning created his own-all we can say is WOW! @WalkerNxGL#wawmproud#deeperlearning#futureleader
Numberless word problem during Morning Meeting, encouraging Deeper Learning and collaborative problem solving. What do you notice and wonder?Why is what was added important to our understanding? Love seeing the virtual light bulbs go off! #wawmproud@WalkerNxGL
The second day of learning, and already EE is figuring out ways to help others in our neighborhood during this time of social distancing. We are growing together as a community by giving together to our community! #givinghearts#wevegotthis@WalkerNxGL#WAWMProud
We would never let anything stop us from keeping our Lip Dub tradition going! We hope you enjoy what we put together! Happy Summer! https://t.co/wNELoucJWr
Keeping what's important at the forefront of our students' minds, even virtually. Mr. Collins is keeping it real- #WAWMproud@WalkerNxGL#empathy https://t.co/doQFmMjrBw
Absolutely amazed by the creativity our students' passion projects have shown. Want to get better at basketball? This video shows you how! #WAWMproud@WalkerNxGL#futureBucksguard#proudteachers https://t.co/C34xi0vSfe
Our students used this distance learning time to work on passion projects. One student wanted to cook an entire meal including dessert and made a video of her recipe.If you need an idea for dinner, check out this video! #wawmproud@WalkerNxGL#masterchefjr https://t.co/uttbhPBHwg
Two former Nathan Hale students (and brothers) agreed to be baseball and basketball "experts" for some of our current EE students' passion projects. Love seeing WA/WM alumni so willing to now be the teachers! #WAWMproud#proudteacher@WalkerNxGL
Shooting a better free-throw, making the perfect brownie, putting in wood flooring, the history of Wisconsin, growing tomatoes, learning phrases in French, how to help others with drawing..these are just a few of Ex East's passions that we are exploring! #wawmproud@WalkerNxGL
Excellence East continued their distance learning today with a science experiment about density that kept the students on the edge of their seats. They were also treated to a private concert by one of their fellow students! #Deeperlearning#wawmproud@WalkerNxGL
