So much love for Dyamonde Daniel: Almost Zero by @nikkigrimes9 in 3rd grade! ❤️❤️ @my_pcs @slaughter_holly @MerridethS @carriegreetham

Launching a week of learning with some powerful truths. #standardsinstitute

@eliza_defant @michelleladd8 @my_pcs Well deserved!

Too often in school students are writing what they think the teacher wants to hear. Students need more opportunities to explore their thinking, to share their stories and insights.

Love seeing kids engaged in literature on a Friday morning. ❤️📖❤️

Our Module D Rollout & Collaborative Planning Hub was a success! Get ready for some “revolutionary” reading and writing in 5th Grade classrooms next month! ⁦@slaughter_holly⁩

My amazing 5th Grade ELA focus group came together today to review and revise our last round of curriculum for the year. They are shining examples that team work really does make the dream work! #literacyleaders #dreamteam

Patty Berg, an elite golfer, once said, “What does it take to be a champion? Desire, dedication, determination, concentration and the will to win.” 5th Grade South County ELA Champions did not disappoint! ⁦⁦@hollyslaughter⁩

Fun little jigsaw to analyze how the illustrations in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe contribute to the tone 📖 #iteachfifth

These 5th Grade ELA Champions were truly champions of literacy yesterday. Principals and teachers worked hard. They invested their time and energy to ensure our district meets the needs of ALL of our readers and writers.

About 40 5th grade teachers came together last night to collaboratively plan for Module C. I love witnessing teachers from different schools across the district supporting each other. #planwithpassion

Was greeted with smiles and coffee at New Heights this morning and new modules are in schools, so life is good today.

Learning from the best! ⁦@slaughter_holly⁩

@em_weidner Today I told the kids in the “bee” group at Northshore that I would let them “be” as they continued working but they didn’t appreciate my pun as much as I wish they would have!

A midweek pun from my fifth graders for you! They were very proud of this one- carnivorous plants have a lot of tricks up their leaves! 🍃

Relevant learning board in a 5th grade classroom at Sexton Elementary. Students were able to explain their current goal like experts.

I can’t say it enough—we have some fabulous teachers in our district! Thanks Mr. McCormick for making learning fun and relevant everyday. ❤️

Ms. Campbell at Jamerson confers with a group of readers as they tackle comparing and contrasting ways authors organize information about the same topic. All students are engaged in this work! ⁦@Brandiemacon2⁩

Ms. Jank’s class is working on supporting multiple main ideas of a text for the first time by color-coding the details that connect to each main idea found in these articles about carnivorous plants!
