These amazing first graders are 100 days brighter! We enjoyed celebrating the 100th day of school today!⭐️🎉@canstafford @JSzymanski301 @NorwoodES

These 1st graders were mathematicians and detectives today when taking a shape walk around our room to find examples of 3D shapes 🕵️✨@canstafford @JSzymanski301

These mathematicians worked together to measure lengths of string in order to find the height of King Penguins💭🐧 @canstafford @JSzymanski301 @NorwoodES

Already put to good use! 1st grade teachers @NorwoodES engaging in collaborative planning in our new room! @MrsAmySpencer @JSzymanski301 @pachesapeake @MrsDeGraw_ @MsMcGivneyNES @meganrider85 @MsLundstedt @Ms_Brown2 @MsSchafer_ESOL

Entering a new coaching cycle…Co-teaching & Student-Centered Coaching with so many of the moves: thinking aloud, teaching in tandem, co-conferring! This is fun!! And best of all, centered around student evidence. @Ms_Brown2 @KimMorgan527 @NorwoodES @leannaharris22 @SweeneyDiane

Grateful for the time I spent in @Ms_Brown2’s class reading with first graders today! @JSzymanski301 @NorwoodES

Today 1st grade mathematicians worked to estimate lengths of items around the classroom and then were able to find the actual length of the items using popsicle sticks! 🧐💭@MrsAmySpencer @canstafford @JSzymanski301

Grade 1 mathematicians were hard at work and on task during work places. Hearing and seeing student thinking is a great way to end our day ☀️ @MrsAmySpencer @MLCmath @canstafford

@NorwoodES teachers say aloha to summer learning! 🌺 @canstafford @JSzymanski301 @clcooper7 @HoerJennifer @ms_kotzum @Mr_KettererPE @MBGorecki @AlexFiglewski @MrsShenk28 @Ms_Brown2 @MsMcGivneyFG

So much learning happening in our B2K classes this summer! Our Ss will be ready to roll in kindergarten this fall! Shout out to @HoerJennifer, @clcooper7, & @Ms_Brown2 for the enthusiasm & engaging instruction each day! @NorwoodES @canstafford @lisadingle5 @ms_kotzum

Today in math, Ss discovered how long a second, minute, and hour last by conducting a variety of experiments to see how long it took to complete each task. @canstafford @JSzymanski301 @NorwoodES

“If you think your students are genius, your pedagogy will show up as genius.” -Dr. Gholdy Muhammad

@MrsAmySpencer Yes! Such a great idea!

Just the beginning of writing...maybe journaling to watch and chart growth can come next??

During small groups, Ss used temporal words to order the steps in a “How-To” guide for planting a flower🌻 they were then able to put their guide into action by planting their own! @canstafford @JSzymanski301 @NorwoodES

Our after-school program students skipped and twirled with @Ms_Brown2 and brainstormed ideas to sprinkle kindness 🍩 @JSzymanski301 @canstafford @NorwoodES @nataliertaylor8 @MsAsArtRoom @clcooper7

Check out these 1st grade Ss in our after-school program and the different ways they can show kindness! @NorwoodES @canstafford @JSzymanski301

WOW! What a fun & engaging evening of math! Ts @ every grade level took a deep dive into a #math unit with Ss & families! We explored our math kits & played a math game! @NorwoodES @canstafford @BaltCoPS @BCPSMATH #FamilyEngagement
