Sharing our adventures in learning with the world!

A5: I'm looking forward to the third grade famous Missourians research and presentation. I'm excited to see where they go with it. #WSEBulldogChat

A4: We have talked about putting positive self talk messages up in the girl's bathrooms with the Belles. I'd love to see encouraging words like our walls. #WSEBulldogChat

A3: The ideas presented on these pages are/would be perfect IBlock lessons and blend easily into what we are already doing. I think they are so important to explicitly teach. #WSEBulldogChat

A2: My kiddos always love "Salt in His Shoes" by Deloris Jordan . It could be used to teach be proactive. #WSEBulldogChat

Q1: My favorite family involvement night is Fine Arts Night. Students get to share their creativity and the school is decked out with incredible artwork. #WSEBulldogChat

A5: Getting to know your students as individuals with strengths and weaknesses so that you know how to amplify their voice. Students love to be the expert or teacher on what they are passionate about.

A4: It's so easy to swoop in and help students when they struggle because it's uncomfortable, but allowing them to struggle and scaffolding them to problem solve is so important.

Yes, yes, yes!

A2: I believe education should be more developmentallly appropriate. Students need more time through centers, play, imaginative play to learn and practice social skills. #wsebulldogchat

[Mrs. Barrett @MrsBarrett3rd]

A3: That's a great question. I think I teach creativity by helping students understand there are often many roads to take to reach your goals. It's often not black and white, right or wrong.

A2: We need to adjust to fit the growing needs of our population. We have a lot of families and students in chaos and we have to see and support them.

@TheReal_MrEvans We’re experiencing the same types of conversations in my class. It’s important to teach kids to communicate their feelings. #allthefeels #WSEBulldogchat

[Mrs. Barrett @MrsBarrett3rd]

A3: Giving students choice within a tight structure allows room for innovation without loosing them. It also sets them up for success. #WSEBulldogchat

[Mrs. Barrett @MrsBarrett3rd]

A2: I’ve been dabbling in math stations with the advice of Angie Lester. There are definitely pros and cons of this way of teaching. #WSEBulldogchat

[Mrs. Barrett @MrsBarrett3rd]

I agree with Montel, the time it takes to innovate is time taken away from family time. #WSEBulldogchat
