Students shared their thoughts, organized & consolidated ideas, and collaborated beautifully to determine our class family values. Chalk talks & thinking routines are such a powerful way for students to engage and take ownership of their learning! #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA

In a recent survey, we discovered that our class is into video games (surprise, surprise)! What better way to dive into opinion writing than use an area of great interest? Bet you can guess which side most are taking! Now to find research to back up their opinion.. #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA

Ss thought it was just a fun doodle break, but were surprised after our chalk talk gathering thoughts on society’s gender expectations— they looked back and realized some gender biases they may subconsciously perpetuate! #bethechange #genderbias #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA

Congratulations to the winners of OMWD’s annual “Love Water, Save Water” poster contest. Indira Jayanti from @PowayUnified, along with Ariana Lemle and Emalyn Negrea from @FloraVistaElementarySchool were recognized today as the top three entries in the competition.
Do you recognize these animals? They’re California state symbols! These young authors wrote brilliant informational pieces based on their research, and followed up with these gorgeous watercolor-resist masterpieces! #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA

Couldn’t be more proud of my students as they persevered on their challenging assessments this week. When they asked for paper clips to hang up their graphic organizers as they typed their writing, I almost teared up! 😭♥️ #proudteacher #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA

Ss got great feedback from their peers. They are SO excited to plan and try out some ideas: student-led lunch clubs, announcements, posters, galore! We want to make a difference, even with just 6 weeks left in this amazing school year. ♥️ #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA

Now that we’ve defined the problem(s), it’s time to ideate! There are no wrong or bad ideas when we’re generating potential solutions. Tomorrow, we’ll share and get some feedback before prototyping & putting our plans into action! #designthinking #eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA
Sometimes, we need to take the time in our full days to address real student social/emotional challenges! Today we started a #designthinking project to dig deeper in awareness & in problem solving. We always start with empathy and hear each other out ♥️ #eusdtweets – at Encinitas, CA
Farm Lab Day 2: Ss asked purposeful questions to a field expert, took notes, then got to building! It took multiple ideations and much perseverance, but all groups got their wind turbines to spin… and many were able to light up their 💡bulbs!#eusdtweets – at Encinitas, CA
Farm Lab Day 1: observing, researching, gathering data, and defining the problem. Can’t wait for Day 2 where our fourth grade engineers will collaborate to design and create prototypes! #eusdtweets – at Encinitas, CA

Love to incorporate engaging @MysterySci explorations in our classroom! 4th grade scientists discovered connections between sounds and vibration by creating paper cup telephones. Naturally, Ss are now wondering how cellphones work! #staycurious – at San Diego, CA

Today, we reflected on what would be a good or bad day for us individually. Then, we shared with one another. We realized that all of us, grownups and kids alike, had many shared values and feelings! Love developing #selfawareness and #empathy @eusdtweets – at San Diego, CA
