We wrapped up our 2020 season last night at Allatoona. Thank you to the Seniors. Thank you to the parents. Thank you coaches. Longhorns forever and always.
Earlier this week, my day began with a thoughtful and encouraging note. As I’ve reflected, it’s been a reminder of how a few kind words of encouragement can change your day/week/sometimes years! Thank you, Mr.T! #JourneytoAWE@bakerelembears@EmanuelTorralb4#PositiveVibesOnly
Baker’s staff and students have been so fortunate to have this fabulous educator on our team! She’s always willing to stop and lend a helping hand -and she does it all with a big smile on her face!!! We love our Ms. Williams! @bakerelembears#20daymagicmaker#bakerlovesmswilliams
Dinner with Santa was a blast!!! Enjoyed seeing our Baker Ss, families , and colleagues! Nice to see old friends- and make new ones!! My face painters enjoyed the visit to Baker too! We spotted a couple real ‘characters’ at the end of the night. @bakerelembears#JourneyToAwe
Learning to use area models to multiply can be challenging - but these mathematicians are tackling their differentiated tasks head on and finding success! Love the use of all their resources - including interactive notebooks! @bakerelembears#JourneytoAWE
We took full advantage of the sunny day yesterday and I couldn’t be happier with what my STEM groups discovered during their water cycle experiment. Here’s some feedback from a few of my scientists! @bakerelembears#STEMCobb#JourneytoAWE
As we ended our days today and maybe prepared our classrooms for Monday- December 3rd... let us remember the spirit of Gratitude that was our focus in November and during Thanksgiving - and carry it with us throughout the school year. @bakerelembears#JourneytoAWE
We had too much fun experimenting with ‘punctuation for effect”. Ss wrote messages to a friend and chose emojis to match. I’ve learned many new things about my class the last couple days!! Also learned 4th graders + emojis= engaged learners! @bakerelembears#JourneytoAWE
Truly warms my heart to watch these kiddos take ownership of their flexible math groups - super proud and can’t stop bragging on them for the way they manage themselves !! @bakerelembears#JourneytoAwe#mathematicians
So proud!! Our current flexible math groups started about a week ago and these Ss have already impressed me. They are engaged, resourceful, and focused on learning and collaboration! ❤️ to see them refer to past interactive journal lessons! @bakerelembears#JourneytoAWE
❤️ these STEM FRIDAYS!!! Proud of my little collaboration professionals... all the time and energy we’ve put into creating efficient and productive flexible groups, is paying off - my 4th graders making collaborative groups look so easy! @bakerelembears#JourneytoAWE#STEMCOBB
I’m all smiles this morning as I watch these authors take the Author’s Chair to share their narratives- and equally proud of their role as an engaged and respectful audience!! @bakerelembears#JourneyToAwe#activelearning
@TiffanyHourigan@bakerelembears Leading the way for many students that were a little more hesitant to hold the chicks. Micah made it look much less scary ! Great job Micah!
