Today we used inferencing and a mentor text to determine what we need to write an essay, and we composed an entire essay as a class in 13.5 minutes using the boxes and bullets strategy! Students can also define a “thesis statement” to impress their families at home :)

Today we spent time reconnecting by sharing about our breaks with synectics, a Padlet, and a Menti. So happy to have my fourth grade family back!

It’s more fun to brainstorm ideas when we can “Give One, Get One”! Students analyze the challenges different characters face together!

Some days we stick to the plan - other days we get off on a tangent and watch a compilation video of cats that are scared of cucumbers : ) I love laughing together!

What a great first day of fourth grade! We read the book Sticks and talked about how, at the beginning of the school year, nothing is “im-popsicle”! #positive #wimspride

Today we’re doing a “Food Truck” book tasting to select our new book club books and talking about how these authors’ lives are like different foods. Thanks, @tasty for the great engaging videos!

Student suggests that Mrs. Jones’s decision to help Roger clean his face in “Thank You, Ma’am” is a metaphor for how he did a dirty deed by trying to steal from her and now she wants to help him clean up his life. Fourth grade. This is fourth grade!💗

Today we took some time to talk about the big feelings many of our classmates are experiencing right now. We talked about focusing on what we can control and used the example of Malala to brainstorm ideas.
