πŸ“šβœοΈ Mrs. Craft’s class has been hard at work becoming text detectives! Today, students practiced citing evidence from their passages to support their answers. Using their reading notebooks, they highlighted key details, wrote down text evidence, and explained how it connected to the questions. πŸ’‘ Watching them carefully read, discuss, and back up their ideas shows how much their critical thinking skills are growing! These students are learning that strong readers don’t just have answersβ€”they prove them with evidence straight from the text. πŸ‘ #ReadingSkills #TextEvidence #GrowingReaders #MrsCraftsClass

πŸ”¬βœ¨ Mrs. Johnson’s class became scientists today as they explored solutions in a hands-on lab! Students worked together to mix different materials, make predictions, and record their observations. πŸ’‘ From stirring, pouring, and testing, to collaborating and discussing resultsβ€”our young scientists were fully engaged and excited to discover how solutions work. The best learning happens when students get to explore, question, and find answers for themselves! We are so proud of their teamwork and curiosity in action! 🌟 #HandsOnLearning #FutureScientists #ClassroomLab

✨ Today, our 4th grade students used the extra time at the end of class for something specialβ€”kindness! πŸ’• Each student created a short writing piece where they wrote something nice about a classmate. This activity was an idea from one of the students in Mrs. Browning's 4th grade class! The smiles, encouragement, and thoughtful words filled the room with positivity. 🌟 It’s amazing to see how a few kind words can brighten someone’s whole day! πŸ“πŸ’¬ This is a great reminder that taking time to lift others up is always time well spent. #KindnessCounts #WritingWithPurpose #ClassroomCommunity
