Declaring Identity over every child to see him/herself through the Father's eyes.

[Jonathon Pulliam, M.Ed @JonathonPuIIiam]

Imposter syndrome will have you questioning your place in the spaces that you prayed about being in.

It’s a lie.

You’re capable.
You’re allowed to learn.
You belong.

4th graders did benchmark reviews by snapping a picture of the questions and editing their answers into the photo. Then they #PicCollage it, inserted it each collage into a Google doc and emailed it to me! #MAPprep @HMC1Proud @clmerkerson @HMSANTAFE @KooClassroom @HMC1MeYouUs

These scholars are determined to form habits of a good reader as they closely monitored their comprehension! Today they upheld #rigor & #realness with a close reading marathon, and focused on annotating fiction and nonfiction passages! @clmerkerson @HMSANTAFE @HMC1Proud #HMC1_4Rs

Reteach! Sometimes creating #concreterepresentations for what adults take for granted on paper can completely change the game for our students! Each team used one mystery item (straw/rubber bands/yarn/cards)to construct and label the perfect #numberline!
