Gamecock football beats Auburn for the first time since 1933. That was the year that the Great Depression ended. Now another one has! So proud of our resilience and unselfish play. 🏦🏈

@KhaleelahStrom1 @georgejroy I noticed this too. I know we’ve talked about this before because we said that’s how a lot of us were taught.

[Elaine Smoak @esmoak]

@MathBaller1080 @georgejroy Yes! Activating prior knowledge and tying it all together to make new connections is key!

[Elaine Smoak @esmoak]

@georgejroy #EDSE770Aiken the shift from procedural knowledge to conceptual knowledge is critical to help promote reasoning and problem solving skills in students. Memorizing information and making math easy does not allow for students to engage, explore and make connections.

We had a great first day of school!!

[Elaine Smoak @esmoak]

My classroom is officially ready for the school year! Our first group comes tomorrow & Tues and our next group on Wed & Thurs. It’s definitely going to be a lot different this year but we will make the best of it and have a great year! 💙💛🦁 #straightoutofquarantine #lbclions

@hatchettacpsd @Beachbody I would definitely suggest 21 Day Fix as a great starter program! I used to be a coach (need to sign myself back up - just had a lot going on when I stopped) and have done many of the programs so if you have any questions about anything I am happy to help!
