Preassessment for a @WimpySo mini-unit on sentences led to some great insight into my Ss thinking and understanding. The added bonus that growth mindest is alive in my 4th grade class made my teacher heart happy! #PowerofYet @MeridianCVUSD @CajonValleyUSD

We set our @iReady reading goals for February. Ss chose their motivation, and met it one week early! Question is, do we practice using chop sticks for an added challenge? @CajonValleyUSD @MeridianCVUSD

4th graders used @ABCyaGames word clouds to showcase our character traits. Classmates identified traits they see in one another. Lots of smiles as we felt the positivity and affirmations when typing our words into the word cloud generator. @MeridianCVUSD @CajonValleyUSD
