When you scrap a whole poetry lesson so you can continue reading aloud instead after students started calling out poetry devices they hear in the brilliant book The Unteachables by Gordon Korman #FISDmadetoshine @LilCoyotes_4th @SonntagElem

STAAR practice…but make it fun! We’re playing Stinky Feet and using the Numbered Heads Together strategy to make sure all teammates can answer and give text evidence! #FISDmadetoshine @SonntagElem @LilCoyotes_4th

We are seeing our realistic fiction stories through new eyes today as we revise with a partner. We are getting input from partners about characters, setting and plot. #FISDmadetoshine @SonntagElem @LilCoyotes_4th

When finding countries on the map to support understanding for our read aloud turns into the most joyful conversation about nationalities represented in the room you put your agenda to the side and jump in! #FISDmadetoshine @LilCoyotes_4th @SonntagElem

Replying to @AnneMathew4th
@AnneMathew4th and @BdeCharmoy and I collaborated on creating student choices and a rubric for the end product of their current unit. Students were engaged, were showing mastery of the standards, and clearly knew their expectations.

Using a mentor text is a great way to see how an author makes craft choices to lift the level of their information writing! We’re using our checklists to stay organized and giving it a try! #FISDmadetoshine @LilCoyotes_4th @SonntagElem
