Can Kindergarteners do Project Based Learning? Yes! YES, they can! At one point we had three adults in the room and they didn’t need us at all! They were so engaged and proud of their work- and I learned so much about their topics! #HarrisHappenings
Visited StarBOOKS Cafe today with Weston second graders. It was awesome!! I loved the book reviews and saw several new books to add to my summer reading list! #WestonWay#WestonProud
“When we value childhood and the many things children can do, we’re letting them know that we don’t expect them to be more grown-up than they’re ready to be.”
#HarrisHappenings today…Silly Safaris! Thanks @uwci for the Literacy Matters Grant which allowed us to build our background knowledge through the show and books to read at school and take home! Thanks @HarrisElem_Prin for letting us invite guests in!
Lots of smiles today at Weston with Silly Safari! Thanks to the @uwci and the Literacy Matters Grant were we able to build our background knowledge through the show and books to read at school and to take home! Thanks @WestonElem_Prin for letting us make it happen! #WestonWay
Valentine’s Day done differently in the classroom. Students picked a paper, wrote their name on it, and I added a photo. Students wrote complements and notes of friendship to each other. Parents told me their kids hung these up in their room and kept them up for months! ❤️
Roller Coaster STEM with Miss McMahan’s class this week has been a blast! Lots of learning about engineering, forces of motion, and gravity! #HarrisHappenings
High Impact Teaching Strategies on the agenda today! This crew showed up prepared to share their learning and to listen and learn from each other. #CollectiveTeacherEfficacy#WestonProud#WestonWay
