Classroom Setup

YIKES! Do I have my work cut out for me or what! Had my teaching assignment changed for this year. Headed to third grade. It always seems like so much more work when you change grade levels and classrooms. The unpacking is the worst. I have so much stuff. Gotta go... A week to go until the start of the new school year...I have a lot of work to do. The mess is below...I will post after pics when job is complete.

PEACE,

Celebration of Student Authors

Hi everyone!

We held our annual Celebration of Student Authors this Tuesday night at my school.

I always love this event. Each of the students in our school has a published piece showcased. Parents are invited to come in and view the students' work and leave "kind comments for the author." I put together a slide show of pictures that show students K-4 working through the writing process. I also added a video this year of my students teaching other kids about the steps of the writing process. It was amazing! My students absolutely loved doing this project and learned so much about themselves as writers, speakers, and listeners. The parents were amazed at what their children are capable of as well.  Below are some pics of the books that my students and others in our school showcased. I will post the video of my class this weekend at some point. 

Happy Memorial Day!

PEACE,
