@pennykittle I am loving all the great mentor texts examples in “Micro Mentor Texts” and learning so much about the purposeful craft moves. Any chance this resource will be out in a digital format as well? Would buy it for my classroom for sure! Thanks!
@wesDCSD “Doke” for the win! If you see this kid, congratulate him on having the best word for the portmanteau word off, “doke,” a dead joke! @Howell5thGrade
A great display of class today as each finalist used the power of the pen to defend why their unique portmanteau creation is best. Stay tuned for the ultimate wordsmith tomorrow! @wesDCSD
@wesDCSD Thank you, Shruthi, former student of mine and National Honor Society member, for spoiling us with our final Earth Day read aloud! Miami will be lucky to have you!
@voytko_jane@KarrerMS@DublinSchools This made his day! Thank you for the extra engaging way to learn. It was the first thing he shared when he got home.
@wesDCSD When your wellness Wednesday lesson calls for visualizing a nature walk as a calming tool, you take a real walk. Making cool nature bracelets along the way is cool too!
@wesDCSD When your fifth grade writers can’t seem to master using a capital letter “I” in their writing, you literally call for back up! These first graders led our class on an impromptu grammar lesson!
@wesDCSD @WyandotPTO they are passionately fired up analyzing and comparing and contrasting their different 5th Event location options! What can we afford? What’s more cost effective? Is it inclusive? How much can we eat? What is the risk factor?
@wesDCSD This is what happens when you follow a 5th grader’s chronological writing on how to make a PB&J. Warning. They left me without a knife for spreading, advised I use two loaves of bread, and my favorite, smash the pieces together.
Wild Robot fans! I'm pumped to share the cover art for Roz's next adventure, The Wild Robot Protects! The book comes out on 9/26/23 but is available now for preorder wherever books are sold. I hope you'll check it out! #thewildrobot#thewildrobotprotects#robots#childrensbooks
How tall of a structure can you build? What works well? Where did you fail? How did you overcome your obstacles? Gearing up for text structures! @Howell5thGrade@wesDCSD
