Mrs. Cook

In all seriousness, this was such a meaningful class writing activity with a real purpose behind it. Moments like this remind me just how lucky I am to work alongside so many talented, inspiring teachers and administrators every day 💛

I can’t tell you how much I love the collaboration Mr. B. has with our teachers and our curriculum! #RoyalLeopard

Shouting out our amazing AP, @LindenAPHCSD, for Assistant Principal’s Week! She’s *all in for kids*—dependable, trustworthy, loyal, organized, and always leading with heart. Today she played Uno with some Linden Leopards who cashed in their dojo points! #WeBelieve @Hamilton_LN

📚💙March Book Madness @Hamilton_LN was a hit! OUR winner: I Do Not Eat Children by @MarcusCutler; a hilarious tale of a monster chef with very suspicious menu items had our readers hooked! Thank you @MarcusCutler for your playful storytelling and vibrant artwork. @Hamilton_Instr

3rd graders @Hamilton_LN had the opportunity to go see “A Pirate-y Peter Pan” at the Fitton Center today! Afterwards, they worked hard at making connections between the play, book, and movie. We are so proud of their hard work in this @ELeducation module! @Hamilton_Instr

Year 1 Resident Educators @Hamilton_LN completed their 2nd task-Formative & Summative Assessments today, acing a matching activity. Research by John Hattie says formative assessment can double student learning speed by enabling real-time instructional adjustments. @Hamilton_Instr

This morning’s math vertical conversations were “relay” fantastic! @MrsDShadrach led an insightful session on math standards across grade levels. It included a lively team challenge, a deep dive into OST released questions, and powerful conversations! #OneLinden @Hamilton_Instr

These fourth graders are amazing! Using RACES (restate, answer, cite,explain, summarize) when we are preparing for class discussions! Today we did a close read in ROAR block on Daughters of the American Revolution&how they helped the war in ways other than fighting! @Hamilton_LN

Vertical conversations were on fire this morning! ⁦@MrsCookHCSD⁩ led an engaging and impactful PD looking at ELA standards across grade levels. We even had a fun relay race and dove into OST released questions for deeper analysis. #OneLinden ⁦@Hamilton_Instr⁩

Check out what is happening @Hamilton_LN We are so thankful to be participating in @AdoptAClass ! The impact of positive mentorship is contagious! @Hamilton_CSD

The Instructional Committee @Hamilton_LN met to dive into feedback strategies from Anita Archer's Explicit Instruction. Great ideas and conversations with an amazing team of leaders! @Hamilton_Instr @Hamilton_EleIns #HamiltonCanHamiltonWill

Ss in @TeachThemMissM class get to choose how they demonstrate their knowledge and understanding on their mid mod assessment. Ss can choose to create a poster, Slides, or Collage. They utilize a rubric to reference their work and include all requirements! @Hamilton_LN 🐆💙

Students taking ownership of their assessments: choosing to show the differences between Patriots and Loyalists in the form of a sort, a collage, or a poster. Then we will self assess and share with classmates to demonstrate our understanding! @Hamilton_LN

The paleontologists in @SHardewig’s class put their learning to the test with a hands-on fossil dig, uncovering their own discoveries after studying the EL fossil module. It was a fun and successful extension of their hard work! @Hamilton_LN @Hamilton_Instr @Hamilton_EleIns

These leopards cashed in their Dojo points for the 💫 top prize 💫 at our ROAR Store - Principal for a Day! Love this incentive and watching these little leaders shine! @Hamilton_LN @LindenAPHCSD #HamiltonCanHamiltonWill

Thank you Mrs.Fiehrer for letting fourth grade teachers swe your end of module project on how to save the rainforest! Interesting to see building blocks from previous grades and how the curriculum builds on the previous year’s info! @Hamilton_LN
