Had a great day unpacking statements of inquiry with JT Moore PTO teachers. This staff is amazing. They are always open to new ideas. Thanks for the help emily munn!

Today, students took ownership of their accountable talk norms and put them into action. I am so proud of my students for taking risks and being principled thinkers! ⁦JTMTeam7⁩ ⁦JT Moore Middle IB⁩

Love seeing creative thinking at work in our ELA classes. Mark and Ms. Stanford are doing great things connecting ELA to other creative endeavors.

5th graders in EJ Jones-Siegel and Ms. Robinson's class are playing the game of LIFE. Practicing managing their funds as life throws them curve balls--housing, transportation, COLLEGE. So much fun watching them learn on this rainy Friday.

It’s Kenton Wesby Ed.D. and J.T. Moore Library at it again. Another engaging lesson JT Moore Middle IB where the kids are solving puzzles using logic, self-regulation, and—of course—blacklights. CC: @DrGaryHughes Craig Hammond

Knowing science content and the IB learner profiles are equally important here at J.T. Moore. Thanks for helping our kids succeed Mr. Lute! @DrGaryHughes Craig Hammond emily munn

When students are collaborating in the classroom, it's fun to play where's the teacher. These Spanish students are designing inventions to help our school. Thanks Mr. Bryant and Ms. Trudel for letting me hang out in class this morning.
