Reader’s Theater fairy tale performance for our 4th grade buddies! Totally crushed it!! So proud of my Cheetah actors and actresses 🎭🎬💙 @CentralES1@HaddonSchools@central4D
Listening to these first graders perform their readers’ theaters with so much enthusiasm and expression was such a joy! Great job, 1CP! @ces_acelluzzi@ces_misspetrone 🤩
Our Cheetahs are studying journalism so we hosted local journalists today! They captivated us with stories from the field and gave excellent writing tips. They ended with advice: stay true to you, have courage, be a reader, and don’t wait to do the things you’re passionate about.
Our 4th Annual Math & Literacy Night was so much fun! We played games, created pattern crowns, designed towers, and read lots of fairy tales, myths, and legends. @CentralES1
I’m passionate about UDL as a teaching approach that gives every student meaningful access to learning. To support this, I’ve created resources and a lesson template to support staff in integrating technology in a meaningful, accessible way.

We’ve been working a lot on all the factors that can impact fluency. This week, we’re putting everything together. These two took a syntactically complex sentence containing multisyllabic words (& a homophone that needed to be clarified), & broke it down to read it beautifully.
Paused our vocab and nonfiction work today to practice a foundational strategy. We practice visualizing all the time, but what about adjusting your mental images as you read and receive more information? You’re the director and you need to fix the scene in your mind! 🎥🎬
When our Math Specialist shared this idea during our first coaches meeting, we knew it would be a great self assessment tool. What we didn’t expect was how much even our youngest students would find it meaningful. Checked in ✅!
Our first grade team is really embracing cross curricular applications to help with transfer. Check out this writing activity incorporating their science topic that they’re also now reading and writing about using our grammar program. 🤩
Great job persevering and solving all the puzzles today to find the Zombie Testing Antidote! With focus, effort, a positive attitude, and by reading everything, these students are ready to rock their tests! @CentralES1@HaddonSchools
We practiced testing strategies, made a plan, and now we’re gearing up for NJSLA by reminding ourselves what we need to do in order to be our best selves on test day! Stay tuned for the antidote and which groups find it! @CentralES1@HaddonSchools
I don't always get to see my students on test day, so they took home their own reminder of all the strategies we've practiced to stay calm & focused, preview the text, remember what they've read, & how to get unstuck on tricky questions. Plus a lil love note to cheer them on! 📣
Unscrambling sentences with sight words and CVC words then recording and adding capitalization and punctuation. So proud of these rockstar Kindergarteners! 🤩 @CentralES1
