@TheTimMcGraw We got a little snow here in Granbury, Tx. My boys built a snowman and named it Tim McGraw. 🤣

Student Council came by and did a shoe tying clinic for my firsties. What great student leaders we have @ActonElementary ! #aesriseabove

Today this sweet friend talked about magnetism! He explained that it’s a force and can attract and push away! @mrsbufkinsclass is doing amazing things in 1st grade! #aesriseabove

Career Day! First we saw Judge Bufkin. He showed us how a trial works. Then we heard from his brother, Matt Bufkin from First National Bank. He gave us some cool money holders! Last, we learned about animal relocation and saw some cool animals! Fun! #aesmakeyourmark

It’s an egg-citing day in first grade! We have two baby chicks that hatched out of their eggs! More are on their way! Watch along with us! youtube.com/live/CDk_204FR… #aesmakeyourmark

We had so much fun at our field trip to the Sea Quest Aquarium. We got to feed and touch many different animals. It was such a great experience, and we made some memories! Thank you AES PTO for funding this trip! #aesmakeyourmark

We wear blue for child abuse prevention month. #paluxyrivercac #childabusepreventionmonth #aesmakeyourmark

It’s a special day in first grade @ActonElementary . Eggs were put in our brand new incubators. We got these cool incubators through a grant from the Granbury Education Foundation. Egg-citing days ahead! #aesmakeyourmark

Finding equal expressions takes some brain power. You can just see their wheels turning! #mathgroups #teir1instruction #AESmakeyourmark

Here is our version of the School House Rock noun song. Those songs really hold up well! Aren’t these first graders adorable?! #aesmakeyourmark #schoolhouserock

Superhero ‘a’ visited @ActonElementary this week. He is one of the superhero vowels. They are the only letters with the superhero ability to say their name! We love using #secretstories to connect to phonics! #aesmakeyourmark.

@coleman_kj It’s so cute!

@mrsbufkinsclass I had not heard of this book until we were Creepy Carrots!

Creepy Carrots! I love this team of mine. ❤️ #aesmakeyourmark

Our 4th grade buddies came to our room to read with us today!

This week we have been reading nonfiction books. We read a book that told us how to make butter, so of course we had to do it! Delicious! #aesmakeyourmark

We had a GREAT time at the Harvest Fest today! Thank you to our PTO and admin for providing such a fun time! #aesmakeyourmark

Writer’s Cafe! After wrapping up their first writing unit, our first graders shared their final, published pieces with their peers during lunch! They practiced their speaking/listening skills, and got to show off their masterpieces! So proud of these authors! 🎉 @granburyisd
