5th Grade S.T.A.Rs

I’m tweeting from the class account that I never use anymore. My @Kpteach5 account has been hacked. Email changed and I can’t get in. Already contacted @TwitterSupport, but their response of “we will contact you in a few days” is insufficient in cases like this!

Coming soon @RJOPride!! @KPSchools #rjopride

Thank you to our #kidsneedmentors author @stacymcanulty for hanging out with us this morning! We are grateful for your time, the read aloud, and the fact that you answered all of our questions! Can’t wait to see you again soon! @RJOPride #rjopride @KPSchools

@WheelerStudio @opifan64 I absolutely will. They were VERY upset that Home in the Woods did not get the recognition it deserved. One class also voted it as the Best Casing winner and in the other class it took the Best Endpapers award. Thank you for such a beautiful book!

@KPStars5 @opifan64 @BethFerry1 @kwamealexander @KadirNelson @margaritapoet @rafaellopezart And ditto what @opifan64 said...pass my heartfelt appreciation to the kids!

After deep analysis of 13 stellar picture books, 5-9 & 5-10 voted on their #MockCaldecott choices. Both classes chose Home in the Woods as the winner, along with The Scarecrow as an Honor book. The Undefeated was recognized as an Honor in 5-10. 5-9 chose Dancing Hands. #rjopride

@BornscheinBunch @RJOPride @HeatherMontgmry Heather is the best!!!!

@MsBairdMoments Love this! Our 5th graders will be using @Flipgrid for book reviews, as well! You should have kids watch @MissNikkiIn5th’s Author Connection grid to see author’s giving their own book talks!

Thanks to our #KidsNeedMentors author @stacymcanulty for helping us as we begin storyboarding our memoirs. Stacy told us a funny story from her childhood and showed us her own storyboard to inspire our thinking. @RJOPride @KPSchools #RJOPride
