Lots of amazing writing going on at GIS across all content areas! #1GC

We had such an amazing STEM night at GIS! Families engaged in many ways to Stem-U-Late their brains. Robotics, engineering, math/logic games, and exercise are just a few ways. #1GC

It was a great day to twin with our amazing school counselor and raise money for Riley Children’s Hospital. Mrs. Hunt #1GC

It was great watching @AmyKAbell connect with these sixth graders this week. Who knew that students can learn so much from “huddle” time.

Enjoyed co-teaching the week with Mrs. Seelman. Students learned how to think deeper with questioning, prepared for discussion, and were ready for rich conversations using Socratic Method.

We had a great first week at J. B. Stephens learning procedures, meeting our classmates, and building community. #1GC

It was a great week of reading and writing at JB Stephens. We practiced sentence expansion strategies and wrote about our families. #1GC ⁦

It was a great day to try thin slicing with rounding in Mrs.King’s 3rd grade class. Can you explain your thinking and use multiple strategies as a team? These mathematicians nailed it! ⁦Mandy King⁩ ⁦Amy Sutton⁩ #1GC

Fun to be back at #coachfest presenting with these amazing ladies! Love learning alongside coaches around the country!

It was a mathematical day at JBS. Ms. Dickey’s mathematicians had fun seeing who can get closest to 100 with multiplication arrays while Mrs. King’s 3rd graders created and wrote their very own Esti-Mysteries. Amy Sutton Julie Dickey Mandy King

I enjoyed hearing these amazing first graders engage in some great questioning today about their Junior Great Books story. Mr. Bowman

It was a great 2 days of learning at the IAG conference with these amazing educators. Looking forward to sharing and implementing new strategies to meet the needs of our high ability learners. Christine Sallee Mrs. Cary #1GC

Loved hearing literature circle discussions from these 3rd grade readers at Eden. Students pointed out description as author’s craft, essential parts of the plot, and rich vocabulary in their texts. ⁦Mr. Bowman⁩ #1GC

JB and Eden staff collaborated during PLC. Teachers unpacked the writing components of Wit and Wisdom to see how the program aligns with our IN standards.

These JB second graders had so much fun with our “Build It” STEM lesson. #1GC

JBS teachers started their year with a little joy. We played a little “What Do You Meme-for Teachers” Thanks Joe Sanfelippo for reminding us to start with joy! Amy Sutton

Enjoyed seeing these JB Stephens 4th grade scientists kick off their Scientific Method unit. Students learned the steps in the process during an egg experiment. Look at the incredible details in their notes. Heather Cooksey Amy Sutton

These amazing 3rd grade readers practiced their fluency with a partner and learned what it means to annotate a text. Amy Sutton

When you walk the halls at 5:00 and discover our dedicated teachers unpacking and preparing their lessons together for our new ELA curriculum. Amy Sutton

Thank you to United Way and GCSC Foundation for funding literacy grants at each elementary. The students have loved the take home books and activities that support our new ELA curriculum. #literacymatters
