Puzzle Day in the library

We had so much fun with Red Ribbon Week.

We wear pink on Monday. Red Ribbon Week #VaughnElemntary

Our first day is in full swing!

Ready for Meet the Teacher - I can’t wait to meet all the students!

Great information from the International Dyslexia Association dyslexiaida.org/structured-lit…

Fun in the library: Mrs. Biamont had puzzles for us today.

Reading with our Kindergarten buddies today.

More third grade mentors

Third grade mentoring kindergarten during math stations.

@JohnsonInThird @VaughnElemFISD @eagertolearnSoo @MsBohls @clarksonfirst This was such a precious moment.

Typically, adults present awards to students, but not today. Third graders were tasked with presenting Citizenship awards to any person at Vaughn to wrap up our Social Studies unit of Citizenship. Their words were heartfelt ❤️🥰❤️@VaughnElemFISD #vaughncontributes #vaughndesigns

Personalized learning with our “Coachgiving” today. We learned great ways to keep students at engaged.

We kicked off college week today!

Getting to know our table groups.

3rd graders did a great job of learning our Cafe Expectations.

What a great first day of school!

Students completed a “One Pager’ after completing their books. Each student had a skill they were focused on and took notes as they read. Then they completed the One Pager to show what they learned as they read. ⁦@VaughnElemFISD⁩

Loved sharing the eclipse experience with my amazing 5th graders. ⁦@ci_elem⁩ @AuroraDS5 @turner_erin25 ⁦@VaughnElemFISD⁩

Building background knowledge gives students a solid foundation before they begin something new. An example from today: We learned about the Geminid Meteor Shower before reading a story centered around it. @VaughnElemFISD #vaughnsoakupthesun

Students working together to determine the theme of a passage and identify supporting details. #Vaughnsoakupthesun @VaughnElemFISD ⁦@LaurenMonk_IC⁩
