Ss working on a multi sensory approach today to learn their spelling words.They used shaving cream, marker boards , and tracing. The Ss rotated to each center every 8 minutes. As a result, every student earned 100% on their test! #proudteacher#SpecialEducation@waldron_kathie
Celebrated World Read Aloud Day today, we had many readers and even an author. Ss did such a great job listening to the books and asking questions. Thank you to all!
Today my Ss enjoyed the much needed brain break and took turns on the Focus Walk. So blessed to be working in a district with amazing students, staff, and parents who support the needs of all children. 🤗
They first learned how to use transition words in describing how to carve a pumpkin together as a class. On their own they wrote how to build a snowman! Amazing !
