In our alphabet countdown, today was K (kindness) day! “On kindness day, we’ll write something kind. When I think of someone special, you’re who comes to mind.” Students wrote notes to special people in their lives and they were the sweetest! #ownyourimpact
We began our final countdown! Each day we’ll pop a balloon with a student name in it and then that day becomes all about them! Today’s student had a morning meeting dedicated to her, had a lunch bunch with friends, & took home this poster signed by her classmates! #ownyourimpact
Today we launched our new math unit! Students drew models to solve two step word problems involving all four operations. They loved showing their work on their desks! #ownyourimpact
This week we’ve been determining the characters point of view in our story! I love catching moments of students sharing their thinking + text evidence 🥰 #ownyourimpact
I caught the most precious moment the other day. These two ladies were celebrating how “all types of kids” were represented in this story and how “that’s so cool!” 🥰 #proudteachermoment#ownyourimpact
Today the third grade team sent home “top secret” letters to parents! We’re excited to collect some sweet notes for our students from their families! They’re going to get them as a surprise before they take the FSA next week! #ownyourimpact
Today we found evidence in our poem that supports the theme in the final stanza! This is one of our most challenging standards but these kiddos rocked it! #ownyourimpact
Today we rolled out thinking maps! Students created a circle map after researching the Iditarod! Then they read a poem about the Iditarod and added the theme of the poem to our class circle map! #happyfriyay#ownyourimpact
PJ day can’t stop us from working hard in guided reading this morning! These kids are rockstars 🤩 I love starting my morning with this group. #ownyourimpact
The kiddos were so excited to see that their letters about how they would make the classroom a happy place got so Santa! Now we have our own classroom Elf! We named him waffles 😍
Today students analyzed and labeled each part of the modeled writing to understand clear writing expectations! Their writing has improved so much already this year! 🙌🏻✏️💓 #ownyourimpact
