BPS teachers came together around the topic of literacy, personalized to their grade/subject. I learned a lot about what our brains go through to process letters to sounds to words to meaning. Thanks Christine Job & Molly Enockson for being lead learners with 4th & 5th. #learnbps

Best time in 1st grade observing a lesson redesign focused on some of Scott McLeod 4 Shifts. Ss were learning about community helper roles & their impact. Design was packed with agency & authentic learning. #learnbps Lisa Sarah Jordan

Ss in Kielly Richter class wrap up work on coordinates & line graphing by solving one another's treasure hunt. Followed by a reflection on the results and their thoughts on the learning experience. Collaboration, problem solving, critical thinking - YES! #learnbps Dr. Shawn Oban

BPS 2nd graders are ALL IN as they learn about producers and consumers. They are working collaboratively to create and execute on a business plan for a good or service that they will sell. #learnbps @Rabenbergta

Math isn't just about solving the problem on the board. BPS 7th graders think critically about real life situations where they apply strategies for +, -, *, and / rational numbers. #learnbps Dr. Shawn Oban

BPS Ts K-6, Learning Designers and Portfolio holders did an amazing job on our Guaranteed Vocabulary for Math and Science with Dr. Warrick, karenarnold_teacher and Jennifer Zacher #learnbps

5th graders showcased amazing research, critical thinking & questioning skills as they led their own Socratic Seminar. In groups of 3 the students highlighted things they learned & posed wonderings they still had. Student investment & engagement soared! #learnbps Michele Svihovec

BPS 4th Graders collaborated to practice their persuasive writing skills by making a Shark Tank pitch for a class pet. Classmates served as the "sharks" - analyzing the information & posing questions and providing feedback. Rhonda Goetz Michele Svihovec #learnbps

Shout out to our BPS teacher leaders who work on guiding coalitions and on our Learning Design and Innovation team for facilitating professional learning on the curricular program, vocabulary instruction, standards-based education, proficiency scales and more. #learnbps

BPS Teacher Leader Academy Ts shared their 4 Shifts redesigns w/ mentors & mentees. Their vulnerability in talking to their learning risks was as inspiring as the amazing student results in increased engagement, authenticity, & thinking. Teacher Leaders Matter! #learnbps Scott McLeod

BPS IT staff & Interns took time at the CTE Showcase to highlight how important internship opportunities are to the district & the students. Our interns are critical to keeping > 14,000 chromebooks in student hands & the skills they learn set them up for their futures. #learnbps

BIG thank you to LHS custodial staff, administration, LDI and the technology team for the event prep, setup and cleanup. #learnbps Tom Schmidt
