Talk about ownership! Our 2nd graders own their classroom library. They worked together to look at alllll our class books and sort them into categories. They created their own system for taking care of our books and keeping it all organized. #community #1lisd @TarvinES

👏 👏 👏 This year is my first year where the only marks on my students papers are feedback related. C=correct PC=partially correct or NY=not yet. No grades anymore and my students ownership of their learning has skyrocketed.
