Yesterdays, to introduce our new argumentative text unit, students did a gallery walk! They analyzed ads and petitions to identify their claims and evidence. #cheetahpride#WEareLakota
Students got to learn from their peers’ zoo projects this morning. When 8 classes of 5th graders are given the freedom to move from room to room and chaos doesn’t ensue (and 3 days before break), that’s the definition of engagement. #WEareLakota
Students from all 5th grade classes did a gallery walk to view zoo projects today! It was so great to see everyone’s creativity come through in their models! #cheetahpride
Join our staff as we enjoy 12 days of jeans and spirit days starting tomorrow! 👖 🐠 🏝️ 🌸 Here are the first 7 days!! Wear tropical wear tomorrow! #cheetahpride#WEareLakota
Thank you @brainpop for making a video that accurately depicts Thanksgiving! Students were surprised to learn that “Pilgrims” did not wear buckles on their clothes, deer was served at the harvest meal, not turkey, and Abraham Lincoln created the Thanksgiving narrative.
