High Five Friday and just like that...the first week of school is in the books!

Hello Roller Coaster day! It was a total blast. I was impressed by these students’ abilities to collaborate as a team

Fun with Expanded Notation Wells Elementary #explorewells

I love watching those light bulbs go off when students become proficient in a difficult skill! Making 1/10 and 10x a number and completing a challenging puzzle to boot! Wells Elementary #wellsexplorers

Did you know that the “foot” was an actual measurement used by the Ancient Greeks? It literally equaled the length of YOUR foot. With no standardized length...Who would you rather buy supplies from? The shopkeeper with big feet or tiny feet? 😄 Wells Elementary #exploreWells

The race was on! Students investigated the effects of friction on various surfaces. Each surface was tested with a minimum of 3 trials. The students were super excited to record the results! #exploreWells Wells Elementary

Spending time in the school garden...the perfect way to end a week! #exploreWells Wells Elementary

Creative writing breaks were a highlight for my students this week. Ask them if they want to do a squiggle journal and you will get a unanimous “yes please!” Love seeing their creative pictures and stories! #ExploreWells #CFISDWells

4th grade students know how to celebrate their writing...red carpet style! #ExploreWells Wells Elementary #4thgradeteam

Part of our Writer’s Celebration included reading our classmates’ stories and leaving genuine compliments! Students loved getting to take home 5-star compliments from each other! Wells Elementary #ExploreWells

My students always shine bright but Genius Hour is over the top! Today one of our classmates gave a presentation on how to stay organized. She wrote her own guidebook with tips, illustrations and specific directions. So impressive! #Wells12days #exploreWells
