Mrs. Brown’s and Ms. Williams’ classes collaborating on the new novel study that 4th grade is starting! Students had the opportunity to discuss topics that they will read about in the novel with a partner from the opposite class. Their discussion topics were seeing things from different perspectives, different experiences of other people, and empathy.
Fifth grade is having #GlowDay and it’s pretty awesome. Major collaboRAYtion going on in every room! #TheBulldogWay #WalkInYourPurpose
For the STAAR test next week, all instructional material must be removed from walls. Mrs. S White’s class decided to replace their anchor charts with motivational posters. What a great idea! #TheBulldogWay
As a way to continue to provide opportunities for our community to provide feedback to our school district and superintendent, we will be hosting periodic town hall meetings through Facebook Live. Join us on April 24th.
Please keep all questions focused on policies, processes, or facilities at the district or campus level. Dr. Owen will not be answering any questions about specific personnel or student situations. Dr. Owen will give a district update and then answer your submitted questions. Dr. Owen will end the town hall with a live Q & A that will allow you to ask questions in real-time. We hope you will take the time to join in on these town halls and we hope you find the information and format beneficial. You can access the Live Event here: https://fb.me/e/vwmk4TnB
No School April 21st!
Yesterday, TIE Club did a #HumanScavengerHunt where we learned a little more about each other and then we were able to tell our own story using a personal #CoatofArms. #TheBulldogWay
These kiddos are making a difference in this big ole' world! They made EARTH DAY 🌎 Bracelets and brochures, bird feeders to take home for our animal friends, and will finish out the week presenting their project based learning Biome Mobile Museum to their peers. Mr.Hunter stopped by and previewed some of their slides and even had to take a quiz that one of my Rockstars created in her slides. Learning at it's best ❤

There was a Chip party for Mrs Trotta’s class was on Tuesday. These kiddos worked super hard on their behavior and it paid off! Each complement Mrs Trotta heard from another teacher… her class earned a potato head piece. Once their potato head was completed… the kiddos voted on their favorite chips and the 3 three were chosen to snack on! Duck lips with the Pringles for the win! 🧡🖤
Our Unified Buddies at Overton Ray are at Crashworks today, collaboRAYting and enjoying some creative time together. #TheBulldogWay #inclusion

The 4th-grade students in Mrs. Johnston's Math class did an Escape Room last week while practicing fractions. The kids enjoyed it, especially when they made it out of the bakery.
