Sharing our knowledge, teaching strategies, seeking feedback, and taking action 🤩 All part of our #PYP Exhibition @BlackElkEagles

🤩 Huge turnout for our 4th Grade Genius Hour and 5th Grade Exhibitions!! Thank you to our school community @BlackElkEagles for supporting us in our learning journeys 🌎

We had a blast at #platteriverstatepark today! We did some birdwatching, learned about big game wildlife and pollination in Nebraska. We even brought home a Bee Hotel that we will put in our school garden later this spring! @MPSElemEd @BlackElkEagles #grade4

Today these 5th graders took action by volunteering at the Millard South Food Pantry! These students carried heavy boxes, sorted items, and asked great questions! I am so proud of them! @nicbeins @MSHSactivities @BlackElkEagles

It's not too late to build community among your staff. Check out these team-building activities from @ctrisenetwork – and encourage teachers to try these with students, too. docs.google.com/document/d/1gF…

Giving students feedback doesn't have to take a lot of time in order to be meaningful or accurate. These three strategies I share in @edutopia are a great place to start! edutopia.org/article/quick-…

Our beautiful 🤩 ACTION 🤩mosaic, celebrating how our students are making a difference at home, at school, and in their community @BlackElkEagles 🦅

We had some amazing 5th graders come share their 3 Branches of Government projects today! 4th graders had a blast and shared a warm (praise) and cool (grow) feedback slip with their presenter. @MPSElemEd @BlackElkEagles #verticalgrades

I’m always curious to see what 4th grade has in store @BlackElkEagles 🤔

4th grade VS students creating mosaics with action slips @BlackElkEagles During their project, they were reading student action aloud and discussing how cool all of our students were, making a difference in their homes and communities. It’s a great day to be an Eagle 🦅

Way to go Eagles 🦅 @BlackElkEagles

Today our #4thgraders worked together to build models that explained how vision and light work. They labeled the parts of the eye and explained how light info is received in the brain @MPSElemEd @BlackElkEagles
