Upcoming Small Group Instruction...My Students Know! #Retired Teacher Reminiscing

 In addition to choosing the books they will read during independent reading time, students in my class were asked to sign up for small groups that would help them to grow as readers. When students are asked to think about what they need to help them tackle more complex texts, they can seek the help they need and work at it.  The topics or minilesson targets are developed with students and are changed based on their needs. 

International Day of Peace Celebrations

 

Each year, for the past 6 years, to celebrate the International Day of Peace, I have designed a human formation bringing our entire K-4 building together. The pictures above depict a few of the events.

During these celebrations our music teacher had students and staff sing a special song, students would share original pieces of writing, and special individual class creations were showcased. Great way to celebrate the day!
