Learning Labs were in session this week during K and 2nd Extended Planning! Our focus? Writing small groups! K teachers watched me model two small groups and in 2nd grade we took our learning lab to a 3rd grade class to practice live! ✏️ @HelloAlexElle@KCWilliamsFCS@dmoore_abc

ELA teachers participated in a PD today around conferencing and small groups in writing! They read articles, participated in an ESOL SIOP strategy, and 3-2-1 engagement! I’m excited to see where this writing focus takes us! ✏️ @HelloAlexElle@KCWilliamsFCS#everychildreads
Had a great writing lab-site with 1st grade on Friday! Teachers were able to watch a modeled writing conference and then get the opportunity to practice. Thank you for being open and vulnerable 1st grade 🤍🧠🤩 @FultonZone5@HardrayDumas

Consistency is key for student success! Today, our Grade 2 team dived into a Close Reading Labsite to align our practices and bridge the gaps across the grade level. There is nothing more powerful than teachers learning from teachers. 📚 #WhereCollegeBeginsInPrek#Labsite
Thanks to Sandy Springs Education Force for hosting their 3rd Annual High Demand Career Fair, which was held at Riverwood.
