When our pain is talking and all we hear are negative thoughts, let’s remember to bring those thoughts under the authority of Truth: “We take captive every thought and make it obedient to Christ,” (2 Corinthians 10:5).

Mr. Hardy’s top 5 students in iReady got their reward today. They each got to put a “pie” in his face. He is such a great sport willing to do whatever he can to motivate his students. @BlytheBower

After a week of state testing Mrs. Berger is making learning fun for her @BlytheBower 4th graders. They are reading Treasure Island and have created their own treasure map and writing. They LOVE it. What a great way to keep them engaged in learning. @Kris4berger @BBowerPrincipal

@BlytheBower 5th graders have been studying the Renaissance. After studying so many artists they became artists themselves. #learningisfun @mrsrodenbb5

We had a famous visitor @BlytheBower today. Julius Caesar came to help teach Mr. Hardy’s third graders about Ancient Roman Civilization in CKLA. #bringhistorytolife #studentengagement

Lots of great math work happening @BlytheBower. 3rd grade is working on multiplication strategies with @fdurham1958 and Kris Berger’s 4th grade is determining if a number is prime or composite. Such great mathematical thinkers.

⁦@BlytheBower⁩ Fifth grade is so cool they’ve gotta wear shades. Mr. Williams’ class is getting ready to dig into a personal narrative of Rosa Parks to find text evidence of point of view.

One of my parents hopped on Google Meet today to show us her snakes and Madagascar Hissing Cockroach. It was so fun to hear about these animals. I was much more comfortable seeing them on Google Meet than in person. I didn't have to hide or anything. #BBBam #CCSAtHomeLearning
