@MissSchack Proud of you and all your hard work! <3

We teach our students how to write.
We teach them to value their thoughts.
We teach them to share their voice with others.

I think it's really important for us to model that same courage for our students. #WhyIWrite

"The moment you become unteachable we can no longer teach"
Yesterday I was reminded that as a lifelong learner I can benefit greatly from researching on my own and reshaping my practice and how I care and teach my students. #lifelongleaner #studentteaching #emergingeducator

Elise Schack '19 reflects on Houghton's recent Literacy Day, where more than 200 local students visited campus. https://t.co/K0KgFmyEuF @FillmoreEagles #houghtoncollege #literacy

My job as a teacher isn’t just to deliver content; I want to make sure my students are caring & respectful humans too.

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

Today was my last day with these kiddos! I have LOVED watching them grow throughout the school year and especially how their writing & reading skills have developed! I’m going to miss them & teaching with my wonderful practicum partner, @missswansonn 💜 #1stgrade #practicum

Our second Literacy Day was with more than 100 students from Belfast… https://t.co/OpgG9O37QB

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

We had a great time making literacy fun and engaging for our students! Thanks for being s great group of kids :) #litday #langislit

There favorite time: OUTSIDE!!!

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

For our last station, the students got the words they found in balloons and sorted the correctly spelled words into a category of “double consonants” or “no double consonants”! Make learning fun for your students! #literacyday #langislit #education

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

Read aloud & logographics!
Today I found out how this can make students really want to listen to the stories and how creative their drawings can be that they create to help them understand and remember a word! #literacyday #langislit #logographic

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

Station 2: students played Simon Says and focused on adding -ed to the words and figuring out how to sort the words according to the different sounds they make which are “t”, “d”, and “ed”.
This was a fun way to engage our learners! #literacyday #langislit

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

Writing time! Students are coming up with fun creative ideas of what their first day would be if they came to @HoughtonCollege in 10 years! #writing #literacyday #langislit #education

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

Station 1: racing to make words & adding
-ies to make the words plural! #literacyday #langislit #literacy #education #4thgrade

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

It’s LITERACY DAY @HoughtonCollege !!!
Can’t wait to do fun activities with these students to help them love literacy even more! #langislit #education #literacy

[Fountas & Pinnell @FountasPinnell]

Students become energized when they influence the direction of their own learning. #FPLiteracy

[Katryel Walton @MissWaltonn]

My friend had her students make their own text sets to reflect their own culture! This is awesome! :) https://t.co/L3fMzrGyWg

[Elise Schack @MissSchack]

My students created a text set that reflects their culture, which is now accessible in their classroom! Their texts answered the questions:

1)How do you see your culture in this?

2)How are the characters like you?

3)How does this show what’s important to you? #langislit
