☕✨ Starbucks Mode in Anderson’s 3rd Grade! ✨☕ On Friday, Mrs. Anderson's 3rd graders were buzzing with focus, teamwork, and a whole lot of math magic! Students rotated through stations, tackled multiplication and problem-solving, used their resources, and showed what productive learning really looks like. From hands-on practice and independent work to a little Starbucks-style celebration at the end, these kids absolutely crushed it! 💪📊🧠 So proud of their hard work, perseverance, and positive attitudes. Learning can be fun, cozy, and meaningful all at the same time 💚 #Anderson3rdGrade #StarbucksMode #MathInAction #FocusedAndFlourishing #ProudTeacherMoments ☕✨
