In 4th grade we decided to take our BTC routine and integrate it into our assessment practice! Students are working together to solve their assessment practice questions. Team work makes the dream work 💪🏻
Sometimes engagement comes from the simplest things, such as writing on the teachers desk! 😂 Students have been doing amazing with division using partial quotients 👏🏻
We’ve been quiet here in 4A, but that’s only because we’ve been learning all the things :) from continuing using our BTC skills, to diving into our @MysterySci curriculum! We’ve been having a blast challenging our minds!
Here in 4th Grade we’ve been busy diving into the many different strategies involved with multiplication! Students have been working hard while having fun!
Another example of how BTC helps students productively struggle. Students in fourth grade tackled estimating using amazing strategies! I couldn’t be more proud 😊
We've been learning all about the human body and our reflexes with @MysterySci! Students tested their reflexes, and learned about the brains role in receiving information from the senses, processing that information,and controlling the muscles to enable movement! #staycurious
We’ve been busy here in 4th grade taking all that we’ve learned in BTC, and applying it to curricular tasks! We love it :) @pgliljedahl@S3_Belleville@School3MissB
Math Talk is in full swing w/ @MsAbreus4th Grade classes! @S3_Belleville students had amazing math conversations @ the vertical whiteboards while completely engaged with @pgliljedahl BTC’s task: “The Answers Are!” They didn’t want their “thinking” to end! @School3MissBlake #BTC
Day 2 of “Building Thinking Classrooms” (BTC) in @MsAbreus4th Grade Math classes @S3_Belleville was a hit! Students focused on whiteboard expectations while building community to complete the 1-100 activity. @School3MissB#WhiteboardExpectations #BuildingCommunity#BTC
Students @S3_Belleville in @MsAbreus4th Grade Math classes kicked off “Building Thinking Classrooms” (BTC) today with the focus of TEAMWORK! Students had to work together as a team to build the tallest tower! @School3MissB#TEAMWORK#BTC
4A is getting into the spooky spirit by crafting our skeleton fingers in our human machine unit! We learned about how our bodies move, using tendons, bones, and joints! @MysterySci@S3_Belleville
What a great start to the year. We are working together to make sure we have a successful learning environment. First on the agenda: creating classroom expectations☺️ @S3_Belleville
