We are so lucky to have the opportunity to go visit kindergarten buddies @MrsAustinKinder. We love reading with them and dancing with them! Today we even got to talk about what we want to be when we grow up!

“If you tell your students what to say and how to say it,you may never hear them. Only the lake echoes of what they imagine you want them to be.”-Donald Murray. Such a powerful quote brought up by Vicki Vinton in “Letting students Be the Protagonist in their own Learning” #wsra19

“If we keep our kids in the shallow end they are never going to learn to swim.” Every kid deserves to be challenged. Every kid deserves to be pushed. Equity means making those challenges attainable- Dr. Pedro Noguera

While you are cuddled in relaxing on a snow day, a group of Middle School teachers are spending the day talking about/ learning with reading education. Excited for #WSRA19

Happy Halloween!! We are busy writing descriptive nonfiction paragraphs about Haunted/Old Houses. Anyone in the market to move? Ask your student about their sensory language, rich details, or powerful adjectives.

We did a quizlet live with content from the whole school year. It’s amazing how much we remembered.

@gcouros I love the book “Who is Melvin Bubble” for personal narratives. It’s a fun way for students to share who they are, through the perspectives of others.
