Love our superintendent’s heart SO much!

Shhhh🤫This is @BrackinsKesha taking over @ThreadgillMCPSS profile to share this picture. Some days our superintendent deals with multi-million dollar budgets & a global pandemic, and some days he ties students’ shoes. All in a day’s work for a servant leader. @MobilePublicSch

Equivalent Fraction practice is rocking and rolling today! I love asking students to explain their thinking. It shows me they understand & it also lets other students hear from their peers! #mathisfun @CollierES 💙🐝

[Shelby Boykin @MissBoykinCES]

Using our fraction manipulatives are a MUST when comparing fractions! #handsonlearning #mathisfun @CollierES

Fractions on a number line practice is in full swing! So proud of these kiddos. They’re picking it up after only a few days! 😍💛 #mathisfun @CollierES

We can’t learn about fractions WITHOUT doing my favorite pizza craft! I’m not sure who enjoys this more. 😍🍕 #mathisfun #handsonlearning

While learning about Traits, we sorted characteristics under Inherited Traits (passed down) or Acquired Traits (NOT passed down/learned). I love getting my students to look at traits as the things that make them “them”!
