We wrapped up this week with a fun game of Battleship-with a spelling twist! There are so many super fun ways to practice and review literacy skills! I am lucky to be able to support such great @Mosaic_ES students each day! ☺️❤️

Congratulations to these @Mosaic_ES Mustangs and their teachers for impressive scores on the final WordMasters Challenge test. WM gives our students an opportunity to work with difficult vocabulary to solve analogies. Way to go!! 🥇❤️

Miss Bonkers from Hooray for Diffendoofer Day has the right message. She knows her students will do well on ANY test because she’s taught them how to think! ❤️ Our @Mosaic_ES students have all they need to do well on the SOLs so today we celebrated with some fun review tasks! 😜

What a blast!! Our annual @Mosaic_ES Einstein Night was a huge success! Thanks to all the participants and their families as well as all the Mustangs who came to support their peers! Of course, a big round of applause goes to @MosaicES_STEAM for making it all happen!🔭🥼🧪

We had another great year of our Bookworms Book Club!Our @Mosaic_ES students enjoyed many book discussions with their @OaktonHS mentors. This afternoon we celebrated all the fun we’ve had this year! I am proud of these Mustangs and their love of reading! 📚🐛❤️ @FCPSRegion1

We wrapped up this week with various activities like monitoring our fluency, sequencing events from a story and reviewing CVC words with our @UFLiteracy Roll & Read! 🎲 😃 Another Fun Friday in the books! 😜@Mosaic_ES @FCPSRegion1

Let’s hear it for these @Mosaic_ES students for completing Family Reading BINGO! While prizes are fun, the real winning comes from strengthening literacy skills. Thank you @VirginiaPTA for making the board and for encouraging students across the state to read, read, READ! ❤️📚❤️

These @Mosaic_ES 4th graders started the Functional Text Unit. We used our very own Math Carnival flier for practice! 😃 After discussing the purpose and key components, we answered questions posted around the room. Bonus: we shared all the fun we had at the carnival! 🎟️🍿🍕🎪

ICYMI-Our amazing @Mosaic_ES math team hosted a Math Carnival last night. It was a grand event filled with fun games, yummy concessions and BIG smiles! 😃 My favorite part was this wall of math related books! Super cool “2 for 1” learning opportunity! 🔢➕📚🟰❤️@FCPSRegion1

Since @Mosaic_ES is in the middle of "Extreme School Makeover," we have many dull temporary walls. A few creative 4th graders wrote a persuasive letter to Dr. Aste requesting to paint them. They must have convinced her to say YES! Such a fun project to end the 3rd quarter.❤️ 🎨🖌

After reading an example of functional text, this @Mosaic_ES student asked if we could try the experiment. My answer-absolutely! We had fun bringing this science experiment text to life. @FCPSRegion1 👨🏽‍🔬 😲

Have you heard The Three Little Pigs told from the perspective of the wolf? If not, it’s a must read! Poor guy had a cold. He didn’t intentionally blow down their houses…he just had to sneeze!! These @Mosaic_ES 4th graders worked in groups to think critically about perspective!

We are very excited to add two High Impact Tutors to our @Mosaic_ES Literacy Team! Their work will support many of our Mustangs to ensure they have what they need to be skillful readers. Thank you @fcpsnews for launching this program! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @FCPSRegion1

Authors use this when they want to convey words beyond their literal meaning. What is Figurative Language? After a little practice, these @Mosaic_ES students were ready to shine on @Jeopardy! The Figurative Language Tournament of Champions will continue tomorrow! 🤔🤩🏆❤️

These @Mosaic_ES 3rd graders read different versions of Cinderella. While the elements of a fairy tale were the same, the details were different, depending on the culture. But in case you are wondering…Yeh-Shen from China and Adelita from Mexico lived happily ever after! 🥰

[MosaicES_Reading @MES_Reading]

This group is full of smiles!! Why? Well, they work very hard and hard work pays off. We were also playing a game and…it’s Friday! 😜 So proud of their positive attitudes and eager to learn energy. ❤️😃@Mosaic_ES @FCPSRegion1

[MosaicES_Reading @MES_Reading]

A special thank you to our @FCPSRegion1 leadership team for joining us today! Dr. Copeland and Ms. Trout read books to a few of our Mustangs for our Read Across America celebration. We appreciate them for spending time with us @Mosaic_ES! 📚❤️

Interrupting our regularly scheduled literacy posts to highlight a few members of our amazing @Mosaic_ES staff! 💙 We were “so extra” today for our Read Across America spirit week! I am proud to work amongst such dedicated professionals! ❤️ @FCPSRegion1 @fcpsnews

[MosaicES_Reading @MES_Reading]

Our focus last week was fluency-the bridge between decoding and comprehension! A great way to practice is through reader’s theater. Today these @Mosaic_ES 2nd graders put on a show! 🎭📖🥰

[MosaicES_Reading @MES_Reading]

Get ready @Mosaic_ES, we are gearing up for Read Across America week! Remember to show your spirit as we celebrate our Mustang Readers! 📚❤️
