Bonus points for anyone who can guess what 7th advanced is reading from this question?

It is a chilly one, but that didn't stop Maddie from sinking this birdie put🐯

Group 1 was the best group! We had so much fun exploring, being outside, and learning about reptiles in our area here in ECI.

It's Spring!!

Sunday Funday in our house. Can't wait to get the family on the course this summer!

Happy October to those who celebrate these days. Looking forward to one more month at home, but miss my big kids too! Stay tuned to see the cutest chicka chicka boom boom tree on Thursday.

Picked up a great mini lesson this summer with IWP! Today we learned about froot loops in our writing, how to spot them, and how to avoid them.

Our classroom friend, Yorkie, helped us write some sensory details today. We used kernel sentences to explode the moment. He will hang out on our board and remind us to " show, don't tell". Come back for more Yorkie adventures.

Spending today designing the covers of our learner's notebooks in 7th ELA. We will laminate them tomorrow to make them durable for the year!

Exploring new places and soaking up the last days of summer. I can't believe this guy is starting Kindergarten. 😢

Just finished the most intense and beneficial PD I've ever done. Anyone in literacy or administration would benefit 10 fold from being involved in IWP. It's right here living at BSU! Excited to implement some new methods this Fall!

Day 7 of ISI...working today on PBL and hands on learning writing project design

Got a crash course in SOR today at Indiana Writing Projects's institute. Just wrapped week 1 of the 3 week PD. It's some of the best I have ever had.

How cute is this crocheted dragon a student gave me today? I'm thinking it will be my new classroom mascot.

This kid is off to his last day of Pre-K, and he's more than ready to tackle summer.

So different being the parent. My big guy is off the Kinder next year. My 7th graders spent this morning telling me their favorite Kinder stories.

Caught some of my favorite Tigers in action tonight.

Gallery walking to make inferences about our new books today! Green is The Book Thief and Blue is The Giver. It always gets kids thinking.
