Another great day here at @PboroElementary practicing the -ing and -ed suffixes #OneChatham #OurPES

I love using this book to teach point of view and compare and contrast. My kiddos got a kick out of hearing the wolf's point of view of the classic story. #OurPES #OneChatham @PboroElementary

These pandas are rocking it out, tapping out and marking up words with 5 sounds. @PboroElementary #OurPES #OneChatham

My students got a kick out of having some of the Northwood Basketball players read to them and stop by and visit. #ourPES @PboroElementary

Instead of using nonfiction books, we switched gears during Literacy and used PebbleGo to find text features. @PboroElementary #ourPES

Who says you can't make reading fun? Here at @PboroElementary this morning, we incorporated reading during our brain break. Students were given a picture and had to do the exercise move that matched the correct spelling. #CCSreadandgrow #OneChatham

[Whitney Busenlehner @WBusenlehner]

These kiddos are working so hard during Interventions here at @PboroElementary Summer Reading Camp. #ccsreadandgrow #onechatham

When the ABC Countdown Calendar reaches V (Virtual Field Trip Day), you take your class on a Virtual Field Trip to Disney World. We even incorporated some turn and talk moments. @PboroElementary

My students are published authors!! Students used their opinion writing skills to write about their favorite pet and why it's their favorite. So proud of my kiddos and their hardwork! @PboroElementary
