When you catch them using all the strategies to find a Just Right Book during our Book Tasting 🤩🥰 Love seeing books in kids hands that started the week by saying they don’t like to read 🙌🏼💛🖤 @OHamiltonMS #cfisd – at Houston, TX

We tried out a live Kami document to all contribute to our Class Expectations in Advisory/FIT yesterday & then we’re able to sign it as well! Definitely a learning experience, but it was cool to try out something new.🤩 #hms @KamiApp @OHamiltonMS – at Houston, TX

Such a great way to get students engaged, build a community & learn about their teacher on the first day 🤩 Saw this on Instagram and had to do it too! Day 1 conversations were 🙌🏼🙌🏼 #CFISDfirstday #HMS #6thgrade @OHamiltonMS – at Houston, TX

Such a fun book tasting today! 10 genre tables & the kids were excited to find books they could check out from the library coming up! Also, a little virtual book tasting for my online class, Sora has so many options! 🤩📚🍽 @CMohning @BP_Vasquez #6thgradeelar

Thankful for the invite to the all-you-can-read book buffet @OHamiltonMS. It’s always good to pick up a recommendation for a book that “OMG! You must read.”
Love using short Pixar films to hook students in to a simple skill/strategy. Today was making predictions ✨& we started with watching Float 👦🏻They were so engaged! #6thgradeelar – at Houston, TX

Started Quick Writes today! Gif style! Loved seeing the kids that complained about writing on paper, but shocked themselves with how much they typed on the computer for a quick write 📝🤩 #6thgradeelar Their quick writing made me excited to read their future pieces!! – at Houston, TX

This corner is my favorite.🥰 I can’t wait for my students to start adding their own books they’ve read & loved to our Bulletin Board Bookshelf! They’ll also be able to scan the QR code to add book recs and have discussions about their books on a Padlet! @CMohning #6thgradeELAR – at Houston, TX
