A glimpse 👀

Black History is American History all 365 days of the year. Full stop. Bios and quotes courtesy of my kiddos.

[Mrs. Charlene Barrow, NBCT @MrsBarrowIn4th]

As the math/content teacher my kiddos were shocked that I had the poems for them 😂

[Brittany Ferguson @BFergusonVB]

Pro tip: use @OpenAI to generate unique poems for every student they💜

How? Ss fill out google form, export sheet. add columns of directions for #ChatGPT. Copy+paste rows into #ChatGPT- then boooom💥 you got yourself a thoughtful valentine 💌 @jmattmiller @MrsBarrowIn4th #vbits

Authentic winter weather, too!

[Brittany Ferguson @BFergusonVB]

When your 4th graders get #immersedinlearning : analyzing winter weather data, conducting research about daily life of Easter Woodland Native Americans, and then creating a prototype for a product to help withstand harsh winter #vbits @RedMillES @MrsBarrowIn4th @RMES_Gifted

[Mrs. Charlene Barrow, NBCT @MrsBarrowIn4th]

@BFergusonVB I saw this!! It makes sense to me!

[PGI-VBCPS @PGIVBCPS]

Let's celebrate @MrsBarrowIn4th and Lani Johnson @RedMillES! 😎

Standardized tests have no place in elementary education. Because testing becomes the focus of education instead of learning. We take away the fun and excitement of learning, playing, exploring, & creating. We create test takers instead of problem solvers and innovators.

Y’all- the Dolphin Den is giving me so many VIBES! 👀👀 at what one student left for the next group 💜💙 @RedMillES #VBITS @MrsBarrowIn4th @vbschools

[Cynthia Housianitis @RMES_Gifted]

@RedMillES 4th graders went through the engineering design process to plan and build a hurricane proof house that could withstand strong winds and rain. Thank goodness we had an actual hurricane to test it out! @RMESPrincipal @RedMill_AP @BFergusonVB @MrsBarrowIn4th @FlinnNancye

[Brittany Ferguson @BFergusonVB]

We LOVED having our favorite meteorologist @13CraigMoeller visit our fourth graders! We learned about extreme weather, using data to forecast, and proper safety precautions in the event of severe weather! Thank you so much! #vbits @MrsBarrowIn4th @Cscheuer5 @RedMillES
