Washington Elementary is celebrating Read Across America week! #pawesome #huskylearning

[Scott @McalpineScott]

Wanted to give a shout out to two companies that are doing great work. I needed a dining table and thought, "Why not build one?" The wood is reclaimed lumber from the knowledgeable and passionate people @salvageworkspdx and finished with an excellent epoxy from @StoneCoatEpoxy

@neiltyson We are having a professional debate in our team of teachers over @Washhuskies the definition of a trapezoid, and you became the deciding vote. I thought I would pass it on. So, once and for all, how do you define a trapezoid?

[Scott @McalpineScott]

They can read in the stairwells,
And skim in the hall.
They love it so much,
They'll read nearly anywhere at all.

They'll read across cities,
They'll read across nations.
They will come together to read
For Read Across America celebrations! #huskylearning

Me: What did you like about this project? Student: EVERYTHING! - 5th graders researched & showed learning w/an authentic showcase via multimedia projects that came alive w/QR codes from @Seesaw. Major high five to @McalpineScott & @AnneBowling! #HuskyLearning

[Scott @McalpineScott]

Now for the state of the classroom address: The teachers @Wash_HuskiesVPS are going to go back into their classrooms tommorow to love the stuffing out of their Ss, and make sure that EVERY child walks out knowing that they have the potential to gently shake the world. #LoveMyJob

[Scott @McalpineScott]

5th grade students @Wash_HuskiesVPS have started using @Seesaw for @Eureka_Math to show our thinking while solving application problems. This is after three days of practice, but I love how it shows my students' thought processes! #HuskyLearning

5th graders @Wash_HuskiesVPS are making historical Facebook pages. One part of the assignment is to write an activity that person likes to do. When asked why Frederick Douglass would like to play Bingo, this student responded “Who doesn’t like to play bingo?” #HuskyLearning

In light of today’s staff conversation re: authentic writing experiences @Wash_HuskiesVPS - take a read 👇🏼 #HuskyLearning https://t.co/SfijrMpfI3

@TheMarsGen 5th graders @Wash_HuskiesVPS want to know what educational path they should take to become an astronaut, and what are the fastest growing fields in space exploration? Keep up the great work inspiring future astronauts! #AskAbby #HuskyLearning

@AnneBowling @Wash_HuskiesVPS *points at his thesaurus* "Oh, this ol' thing?"

[Eureka Math @eureka_math]

It can be frustrating for parents to help with #EurekaMath homework given that they were taught in a completely different way. These five resources will help parents get prepared and confident to assist their children: https://t.co/rkp95wYpQB

5th grade team is working to maximize student growth in math by finding intersectionality between AVID, the use of technology, and Eureka Math curriculum with these outstanding educators. @Wash_HuskiesVPS #HuskyLearning #IAmCurriculumProof

[Scott @McalpineScott]

Vertical alignment gives our students the best chance at success. @WASH_HuskiesVPS #huskylearning #IAmCurriculumProof

[Scott @McalpineScott]

What a great use of technology in the classroom, and an excellent example of redefinition in the SAMR model. I love the additional QR code, and can see some great tie-ins with AVID strategies #huskylearning @Wash_HuskiesVPS https://t.co/C9GXAhsxGw

Displaying your student’s work from @Seesaw is super easy!!! Just print directly from a Folder. Ready to be displayed on a bulletin board! Each page has a QR code that allows you to view and listen to the students creations! ❤️❤️❤️

[Scott @McalpineScott]

Ready to learn about some high quality SIOP education strategies with the 5th grade team! @Wash_HuskiesVPS #HuskyLearning #LifelongLearners #VPSAmazing

@vpsitf @fvrl Awesome! What a way to get literature into the ✋ of students! @Wash_HuskiesVPS would love to have this at our school! #HuskyLearning #HuskyReading

[Scott @McalpineScott]

Just finished the Messr's Craft podcast after a reader's theater on the same story and a student responded "History is so fun! This is my new favorite subject". #WhyILoveMyJob #VPSamazing #HuskyLearning

[Scott @McalpineScott]

February is biography month, and I would love to have a focus on Civil Rights leaders and Social Justice advocates. I have a fairly extensive list, but I want to make sure I am representing other perspectives. So, who should my students study? @Wash_HuskiesVPS #HuskyLearning

[Scott @McalpineScott]

@elonmusk 5th graders @Wash_HuskiesVPS just finished reading an AVID @AVID4College article about your plans to colonize Mars, and want to know what areas of study to make themselves better candidates for the program. Do you have any recommendations? #HuskyLearning #VPSamazing
