@EdDarrell Occasionally! We definitely are sure to thoroughly understand both sides so that they can form fact based opinions.

6th graders are starting their day by reading various charts and graphs about DDT and Malaria.. a topic they have grown fond of debating! #13succeeds

Miss Jacobi's room is flooded with 7th graders' ink blot tests to go along with our reading of Flowers for Algernon! What images do YOU see?!

Despite the awesome weather and end of the year jitters, my sixth graders have been working SO quietly and diligently over the last two days on their essay formatives. I can't wait to read these hard workers' papers! #proudteacher #13succeeds

"Somewhere behind the brightly colored packaging... there is a mountain of corn." -Omnivores Dilemma, Ch 1. Eighth grade wanted to find out for ourselves if this was true, so we sorted food labels into 2 piles: food containing corn on the left, food without corn on the right!

When you use a real world example to help your kids understand a tough topic and you see them using it in their assignments later on = 🤗 #teacherwin #proudteacher #makingthoseconnections

Some of this brain stuff can be challenging to understand! However, turning my room into a live, interactive brain makes it all a little more clear! #13succeeds #brainfun

[Madison Jacobi @MsJacobi93]

7th grade has done some really fun activities while learning about the brain over the last week! #13succeeds

When Steve Jobs' speech discusses how he connected the dots of his life, what else is there to do but to make our own real life dot-to-dot timeline?! #13succeeds

Sometimes you've just gotta do what it takes to make the best propaganda commercial possible! #13succeeds

There was a lot of student movement happening in 6th grade on Friday! #humantimeline #13succeeds

You have a choice. You can complain about things you can't control or you can control what you can and let go of what you can't. You can focus on your problems or focus on getting better. You can look for an excuse or you can look within and find your best.

WE GET WHAT WE MODEL!!!! When kids go home from school they may not tell their parents what they DID at school...but they will certainly tell their parents what they SAW at school. What do we want them to hear? #hackingleadership #1minwalk2work #leadfromwhereyouare

[Madison Jacobi @MsJacobi93]

Needed this.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

You are greater than your circumstances. More courageous than your fears. The struggle is real but you are strong. Life is tough but you are tougher.

I just love coming in on Fridays and seeing the Wizard of the Week board filled with kind words from students to one another and seeing the H.O.T. question buckets full of student work! #13succeeds
