Boom, clap, snatch the right contractions 👏🏻👀

Annual STEM gingerbread project🎉 Students recorded clues for 1st graders to then solve academic tasks! Leading them to realize that their gingerbread people ran away because they needed a home! Nothing a how-to book and some hands on fun couldn’t fix!

Get them excited to learn and watch them grow #handson #grammarcanbefun

First grade future ready learners took a tour of the cafeteria kitchen to identify heating and cooling concepts! #realworld #experiences #learning

Generating word problems using B,M, E! #firstgrade #math #guidedpractice

After writing a how-to catch a turkey book, students had the opportunity to make turkey traps! Students then completed a gallery walk and shared positive feedback with peers⭐️🦃🎉 #firstgrade #writing #stemprojects

We had the best day in first grade! Pancakes🥞 were a success as 100 first graders were enagaged and participating in all the things! Humanizing this lesson allowed students to take a real world experience and connect it to academic content- states of matter @OgleElem

Solving start, change, and result unknown math word problems is hard! Good thing in 1st grade we have a PLAN- picture, label, answer, number sentence to help guide us🎉✅ #mathtools #mathstrategies #mathtalks

Loved this learning experience! First, Students listened to beginning, middle, and ending sounds to spell words. Next, students noticed blends, digraphs, and short/long vowel sounds! Then, we took it even further and noticed similarities between words😍 #proud

New projectors for the interactive win! #mathtime #StudentSuccess #interactive

Bridging using 10 frames! These sweet first graders loved the hands-on collaborative practice #mathtime #mathtalk

Time to take public and share our knowledge! Students worked together to make push and pull anchor charts🎉 #featureready #firstgrade #forceofmotion #science

Decomposing using concrete objects! #math #handsonlearning

Generating word problems- students were grouped and tasked with writing the beginning, middle, end, and question for a math number sentence! They had to be collaborative and work together to make sure everyone’s part fit together🧩🤔➕➖ #mathtalks #firstgrade

Exploring push and pull! Students learned about direction and speed as they participated in a collaborative game of hungry hippo! 🦛 #science #investigation #learningthroughexperience

I can generate a math word problem🎉Hands-on is a MUST! First grade acted out our math word problems. #growinmath #firstgrade

Classifying observable properties of matter using beebots! Loved this hands-on@coding activity to showcase student skills. Always a blast partnering with our DLC @OrczyY #science #coding
