Kinder @NISDScobee are learning about roles, authority figures, and community helpers. During library, we learned about community helpers, read a book about firefighters, and dressed up! So cute!! Thanks @NISDElemSS for providing these browsing boxes to help the learning! 👮🔥👨‍⚖️

The BEST way our littlest learners experience Social Studies? Dramatic play + role-playing!
Shoutout to @mariaxmtz1 for creating meaningful, hands-on learning that brings Social Studies to life in her kinder classroom! @NISD @NISD_ECE

[Maria Martinez @mariaxmtz1]

Did we get more mail? 📫 I laminated all the envelopes & created a post office for dramatic play. Now my Little Knights can role-play as postal workers & customers, practice social skills, & celebrate every card we’ve received. 💌🫶🏻 @NISD @NISDMireles @NISDElemSS

Everything’s bigger and better in Texas History at @NISDLeonSprings ! 🤠 Students researched Texas historical figures, paraded through campus dressed as them, and proudly presented their learning to families and guests. @NISD @OfficialAlamo

First graders @NISDGlenoaks turned their classroom into a real-life marketplace!
With $5 in hand, our young entrepreneurs stepped into the roles of buyers and sellers, trading goods, making choices, and discovering firsthand how markets work. Big lessons. Smart spending. @NISD

[NISD Elementary SS @NISDElemSS]

These 5th graders from @NISDWanke are absolutely loving our I Survived Book Club!
Just take a look at these incredible writing samples shared by their teacher, Ms. Vaquera. We are so proud of the deep thinking and engagement happening through this book! @NISD

[NISD Elementary SS @NISDElemSS]

We LOVE when learning goes beyond the classroom!
5th graders @NISDScobee took their learning on the road and made powerful connections at the museum. Field trips with purpose = deeper learning! @NISD

[@MrsVanessaHdz1 @MrsVanessaHdz1]

Our @NISDScobee 5th graders had an amazing time at San Antonio's Briscoe Western Art Museum, making so many connections to our learning of the Westward Expansion! @NISDElemSS @NISD #GoPublic
