Who wishes they were in Mr. Fernandez’s math class today playing battleship to learn about coordinate graphing! 🙋🏼‍♀️me! @npepanthers

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

@Tyler_FF_ Tbh it’s all a little moot because it was the right decision. He won the national championship. Whether or not it helped his draft capital is subjective, but most NFL players can’t say they’ve won a natty.

What a fun way to connect ideas within a novel!

Y'all. I'm obsessed with making Book Related #Connections Puzzles - like the one I created for Louder Than Hunger by @MrSchuReads! Links to all the puzzles I've created + a FREE planning doc for kids here: https://t.co/pUvxLNqNrv

Love a little small group read aloud led by a student! Sharing books is sharing joy!

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

@colbysharp @MarshKatherine @bookelicious I love what you said on @theyarnpodcast about how so many novels take place in boarding schools to keep the parents away. Really opened my eyes to how necessary that is to the plot! Excited to see how my Percy Jackson readers eat this one up!

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

@Npesart thank you for giving us so much beauty to celebrate! So proud of my artists!

[Emily Dailey @Npesart]

@FernandezFifth our 2nd annual daffodil ceremony was beautiful!

So I simply cannot wait any longer to show off our students’ Adopt-a-Shelves!!! Some are still in progress, but the ones who have created their mini book displays completely by their own design have knocked it out of the park! Photos of individual shelves in 🧵

Congratulations to these amazing teachers & leaders! @mrs_brashear @MrsAltermanNPE 💛💙@npepanthers

Love using shades of meaning to discuss negative and positive connotations for words. The more we understand words, the better we can understand stories!

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

As someone who rarely reads nonfiction, this book talk has made me excited to read it!

[Colby Sharp @colbysharp]

The Mona Lisa Vanishes was one of my favorite 2023 books, and it might be the coolest middle grade nonfiction book I have ever read.

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

Loved using these 6 word summaries of “A Time to Talk” by Robert Frost. Shrinking down to just 6 words isn’t easy! Thanks for the great idea @MrLewCrew #GrowCelebrateMatter

[Colby Sharp @colbysharp]

The goal: #ReadMore. If we can make that happen, the possibilities are endless.

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

Loved seeing the recruiting posters my readers shared in our book club today! One student taught the group how to use AI to generate new and unique artwork #CodeTalkers

As part of our 5th grade Binder Checks, we introduced a sticker design contest. One fifth grader was able to see his sticky note design come to life and find a home in his friend’s desks! #StickTogether #BinderCheckUsOut

[Michael Fernandez @FernandezFifth]

Grouping ideas can really help us see the bigger picture! #WriteOn
