My second grade friends & I have a GREAT time in math! My favorite part of teaching & learning is when the kids can’t and won’t stop sharing all of their “aha” 💡moments! They are growing & shrinking pattern enthusiasts! @GullattES1

Sometimes the Turn & Talk & peer feedback just need a change of scenery to get the thoughts & conversations going! Today was perfect weather 4 intervention outside! These 5th grade readers & writers began 2 fill up those white boards w/ ideas💡! #walktointervention @GullattES1

What an AMAZING END to the month of October! Culminating our National Principals’ Month celebrating & honoring our wonderful @TishaBentley, our Be the Voice Anti-bullying campaign, Red Ribbon week and Beta Club Fundraising! Keeping the drive high in Quarter 2🔥 @GullattES1

⁦@GullattES1⁩ new TAG Teacher is already in the Spotlight. ⁦@Dom_JohnsonAP⁩ ⁦@RonMaxwellFCS1⁩ ⁦@FultonCoSchools⁩

A culminating Friday going N2 Fall Break! 4 grade levels, 1 mobile popcorn bar, 2 contents, a plethora of learning expectations! 2nd/4th math: add/subtract w regrouping 2 & 3 by 1 multiplication, 3rd/5th poetic text techniques using 5 senses w 🍿2 📝 poems @3rdgradeM @GullattES1

Did you know that text book ❓s can “come to life”? In 2nd, we made this HMH task question come alive w/ manipulatives, work mats, & white boards 4 Ss to show their thinking & dive N 2 math investigations. Ss engaged in discourse 2 C how their strategies were same & different

Because we have the MOST DESERVING PRINCIPAL! Kicking off of National Principals’ month with a gentle showering to our AMAZING PRINCIPAL 💜 @TishaBentley @GullattES1

Sometimes you must stop in the moment, address misconceptions immediately, & use any space as a learning environment…today I grabbed up my 6 kids that “didn’t get it” took them right into the hallway…and the “lightbulbs” magically came on 💡#justintimeinstruction

@ejohnson0412 We certainly can! A HUGE shoutout to these brilliant minds. 💚 - Bruce

Math is on the MOVE in 2nd grade! Today Ss combined their knowledge of decomposing numbers to add with regrouping using an open number line! Ss filled Instacart orders from our @Publix Math Super Market! Can you say F-U-N🔥🔥@GullattES1

Some “old ways” just work & doesn’t warrant change. My 2nd grade friends have so much to say in their writing & requested that I showcase the growth of thier work…they can’t wait to see 👀 their writing grow so we’ve brought back an oldie but goodie…The Writers’ Gallery🔥

Readers don’t just read & THAT’S IT 🚫in fact, AVID READERS read & ANNOTATE the text for a deeper understanding! 5th graders practiced “tabbing” their narrative texts when identifying narrative text techniques, they even justified their conclusions w/ their tool🔍 @GullattES1

@Dom_JohnsonAP @TishaBentley @GullattES1 You can do it Z!!!

I spy one of our Eagles working hard to equip himself with strategies inside and outside of the classroom that will help him be successful in all that he does. Great way to continue to SOAR Z!! 🦅@TishaBentley @GullattES1

Math exploration is my absolute FAVORITE PART of the framework😍 Math ,no matter the grade level nor performance level, should always lend opportunities to be hands on & tactile especially when EXPLORING & INVESTIGATING 🔥 math is our jam💯 @GullattES1

A time honoring our Eagle grandparents @GullattES1 tonight! The smiles, the laughs & memories R truly what family partnerships R all about! Building a capacity where families anticipate coming inside our building just 2 see us feels great! #Soaringisoursuperpower @TishaBentley

A simple grocery store run is never that w/ a Math teacher that NEVER turns off! I decided 2 save & UPcycle these grocery store finds 4 the endless real-world math opportunities 4 Ss of all grades @GullattES1 where we ❤️ 2 bring the connections inside the classroom! @MsKnox_

Too cute! @GullattES1 Teacher Leaders found time to smile during the hype of Day 1 @Dom_JohnsonAP @RonMaxwellFCS1 @FultonCoSchools

Dr. Bryant-Booker was my elementary school principal more than 30 years ago at Love T. Nolan elementary. How AMAZING is it that now 30 years later she & my son have Hampton University to forever bond them! #hbcupride @_HamptonU 💙🏴‍☠️
