Face painting was so fun for field day! I’ll miss my goofy 6th graders but they will be amazing next year! #ourbmsa
The dream team! So grateful for these wonderful humans who guided my boy this year! Off to 7th grade! 🎉 @jdurbak6 @BMSAArt @JHunterScience @MrsKohanski7 #ourBMSA

Acts of kindness that feel small to us have a big impact on others.
Research: kids and adults underestimate how tiny acts of generosity lift others' moods.
There's no easier way to make someone's day than to offer a compliment, give a little gift, or send a handwritten note.
Will they survive?!? Fourth graders got to test out their attribute growth with our survival game this week! Using limited materials, they had to innovate and create items they would need to survive on an island. Water filters were a fave! #ourBMSA
Innovative fun bubbling up today in our second hive this week! Students designed and constructed bubble wands from 3-D pens, and of course we had to test them out! 🫧 #ourBMSA
Say what?! Goldilocks was framed?! These Hive-Goers got to look closely at some incriminating evidence against another certain make-believe character today during our Maker Mystery Hive time! I guess the slipper is on the other foot now🕵 #ourBMSA

The use of talking pieces during collaboration is a game changer for your classroom dynamic. I’m so proud of how effectively third graders can exchange ideas in a respectful and productive way! #ourBMSA #OAISS #collaboration #myteacherheartisfull

Its interesting that in Finland, schools avg 5 hours per day and yet fit in 15 mins of recess every hour, but in the US we go 7 +hours and can’t fit in 10 mins total for recess.
Attention is currency, especially in education. Teaching students how to harness their attention and choose where they put it is crucial in building personal agency and increasing engagement. Our little singing bowl holds such power in doing that, and the kiddos love it! #ourBMSA

Fourth graders took their effective communication skills to the next level this week by focusing on the importance of body language, eye contact and supporting evidence when delivering their opinions. They just might have convinced me to get a class pet! #ourBMSA
Kinders and first grade delved into effective communication today with a listening walk, sharpening their listening and awareness skills by honing in on the sounds around them. #ourBMSA

5th graders are talking about assumptions. This class in particular went deep.
