@Teachnmomma @PinchbeckESRays @hcpslib They’re doing amazing this first week!! @kaaauthor’s shelf is always busy with 3rd grade traffic. And the non-fiction ‘car’ and machine shelf is well loved by 2nd graders!! 💕@PinchbeckESRays leaders

@Teachnmomma @PinchbeckESRays Oh my gosh. I love this!

How awesome is this!?! Mrs. Rivera has a ‘magic light’ that turns on when K/1 speak loud enough for her to hear, and know their first and last name. #makingprogress 💕💕 @PinchbeckESRays @hcpslib #ittakesavillage

This is just the best! 💜 our school!

We had a real rainbow to kick-off Unicorn Week in the library!! K is reading “How the Crayons Saved The Unicorn”. Students taped crayon colored rainbows onto a trash can and their classroom door to save them from being dull. 💕 @PinchbeckESRays @hcpslib #librariesaremagical

@HCPSFoundation Thank you for this

At Pinchbeck Elementary School they're using a community garden to cultivate a sense of belonging, increase school/community pride, and a love of literacy with their HEF Innovative Grant project. Learn more about this project and see more photos: https://t.co/Bvvqx3E4RH
