Arrowood Elementary school students donated blankets and a few students and teachers pasted them out last night at our Xenia event! No matter what your age, YOU can make a difference!
These kiddos loved working on the Blankets of Hope service learning project todayπ The messages they wrote were heartfelt and powerful. It is amazing how much this project touched their hearts and mine. π @arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools#blanketsofhope
In 2nd grade last week we were learning all about text features! Students worked in small groups to match the non fiction text features with the definition and an example. We also went on a hunt through non fiction books. #2ndgrade#textfeatures@arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools
We started our place value unit today - exploring 1000! They quickly figured out bundling up a 10 was the way to go. Before too long they discovered bundles of 10 can make 100. Loved watching them make these connections #handsonmath@arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools#MyOhioClassroom
"Reading is thinking" has become a motto in our classroom. Here are some students showing their thinking using sticky notes during Read to Self. @arrowoodbucs#daily5#readingisthinking#2ndgrade
Today is class we had a measurement derby ππποΈ Students needed some hands on practice understanding how to measure with a meter stick. Hot wheels to the rescue! Students raced and then measured how far the car went. #handsonlearning#magicofmath@arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools
It's finally here! Bring on the first day of school! Looking forward to spending the day with my new kiddos- may they all have the excitement that Nemo has π. #arrowoodbucs#firstdayofschool@arrowoodbucs
Working with partners last week! We used #brainpopjr to research Washington and Lincoln and then used our research to compare and contrast the 2 presidents. To finish up, students completed an art project with their partner. ππ@arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools
Today we changed up the Saran Wrap party game to help review for our math test! Each colored tile stood for a skill on the test - find a tile answer a question! The students were hurrying to solve more math problems π! #Arrowoodbucs@arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools#MyOhioClassroom
On Friday Mrs. Christian came in to talk with us about being honest. She read a book, did a little role playing and helped the students make honesty flowers. We love when she comes in! @arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools#charactereduction#honestyandtrust
Students worked together to answer questions from their Scholastic News article on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Some students used the online version to make sure they understood what they we're reading! @arrowoodbucs@XeniaSchools@Scholastic
