I love that this student of mine from last year used her dojo points to come read to my #AllenThird graders this morning! What a special treat for all@of us❤️ #OurAllenLegacy@allenelem
My fav way to assess my #AllenThird ‘s prior knowledge of fractions! Such an engaging way to kick off our fraction unit. I was surprised to see what my students already knew about fractions with the choice they made. What would you rather have? #OurAllenLegacy@allenelem
First day back and one of my #AllenThird graders wanted to use her dojo points to read a book to her classmates! Love seeing their joy for reading each and every day! @allenelem#OurAllenLegacy
#AllenThird took home the spirit stick today with a cheer that they came up with all on their own! As Buddy the Elf once said, “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!” 🎶🎅🏼#OurAllenLegacy@allenelem
#AllenThird graders are working hard to beat their crime solvers in their mystery books by keeping track of possible suspects and clues! #OurAllenLegacy@allenelem
My #AllenThird are very engaged in their new mystery books! They are working their detective skills to figure out what the mystery is and who will solve the mystery!
