Our class reached level 13 on the @khanacademy Learn Storm Challenge. While we didn't win any major prizes, we did complete over 800 assignments as a class, and that's a win to me 🙌🏻 #growthmindset #learnstorm @LVBESPrincipal

After reading Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters, my kids were eager for more Cinderella stories so I can't wait for them to see these! They'll buddy read and create a Venn diagram focusing on how culture makes the stories different #readersworkshop #diversebooks @BrookeMCec

Today we learned about closed, open, and consonant-le syllables so we practiced splitting words with pipe cleaners. My kids loved this simple activity and were asking for more! #multisensorylearning #handsonlearning @BrookeMCec

STEM bins are a hit as morning work! A perfect way for kiddos to have a soft start to the day before morning meeting. They experiment with all types of manipulatives and choose a project from a set of task cards. Everyone was super engaged 👍🏼

Another STEM project for the first week to practice collaboration and problem solving: Newspaper Towers #futureengineers ⚙️

[Samantha Revalski @MrsRevalski_5th]

This activity only lasted 15 minutes but was easily the best 15 minutes of my day! We persevered, communicated, collaborated, and celebrated when we accomplished our goal of building a hands free tower! #teamwork #collaboration #firstdayofschool

My favorite part of my classroom 😍📚 Might be small, but I worked hard to create a #diverseclassroomlibrary. I can't wait for my students to explore the different genres and get actual books into their hands this year 🙌🏻 #Bears_CARE 💙

[Samantha Revalski @MrsRevalski_5th]

My current read... Looking forward to using this book to help me start the school year in a healthy way #selfcare #happyteacherschangetheworld 💙

First bulletin board of the year ✨ Ready to welcome my new group of kiddos in just a few more days!

[Samantha Revalski @MrsRevalski_5th]

So excited to add these new books to my library! This year I'm focusing on a diverse classroom library and exposing my kids to all different types of stories 📚 #BookBoxDay #Bears_Care @LVBESPrincipal
