Our class is thankful for so many things we can fill up a tree. @WaxpoolES

One my students told me that we had a problem. She was concerned that our PBL will not have a public product because we don’t have a way to share it with the rest of the world. PBLWorks What do you think?

What is your favorite day of the year? Today the student presented their favorite day. Diversity within the classroom is beautiful! @WaxpoolES

Traveling back to Ancient Civilizations in our museum! S created contributions are amazing!! @WaxpoolES

These two events this week reminded me, why I still teach. A parent who thanked me for being there for her and her child through this tough time for their family and a child who ran to give me a hug because, “you made division so easy.”

After an awesome Google Meet with our expert Mr. Hume, an engineer, these super students are well on their way to creating rockstar projects for our upcoming Piranha Tank! Time to critique & revise and write our pitches! Final products coming soon! 🥳PBLWorks @WaxpoolES

Thank you to Mr.Hume, our engineer expert who spoke to the 3rd graders about the planning/designing process of creating a machine! Students used what they learned from the speaker to revise their blueprints. #simplemachines #pbl #piranhapoWEr PBLWorks @WaxpoolES

Fraction Action!!! Students using manipulative to get a deeper understanding of how fractions relate to each other. @WaxpoolES @LCPS_Math

Character Studies book clubs! Students taking notes and become so passionate about their characters they started debating the importance of character change. @WaxpoolES Waxpool Reading Crew

No MAP score can measure how much my students grew emotionally. Watching them cheer each other on when a student reaches a behavior goal almost brought me to tears. LCPS SEL
