99math has been a vital tool in mine and our classrooms to help build addition fluency! This game based website allows us to celebrate student success as well as whole class success! It takes 5 minutes to do and has become a normal part of our math workshop! @KenwoodElementa
3rd and 4th grade Meet and Greet was a success. This year’s 4th graders did a wonderful job with their presentations about 4th grade. It was so great to meet our incoming 4th graders! @KarlaFidoe@3rdGradeKubs @JillHandleyKES @KenwoodElementa#kubway
Enjoying the fun of reading and being a third grader with flashlight reading in our blanket forts. We are lifelong readers in Fidoe's class! #jcps#readingforpleasure#kenwoodelementa
What does reading look like? It looks like students making choices! Do I need to practice a specific skill? Do I need time to read? Do I need to collaborate with a partner? #personalizedlearning#jcps#learneragency#reading
In math we are learning how to measure with a ruler to the nearest 1/4 inch. Then, we are using our data to make graphs. Yesterday, we traced our shoes to measure the size of our feet. Then we made a line plot! Checkout our graphs! @KenwoodElementa
Peer reviewing is always one of my favorite days of a writing unit! It’s such a powerful way for students to share their writing with an authentic audience! Their fiction narratives are blowing my mind! 🤯@KenwoodElementa
Flowers, bees, and pollination, oh my! We investigated how pollination occurs with the help of bees using cinnamon and coffee grounds! @KenwoodElementa
Thanks @kmanley0628 for suggesting our third graders attend the @gregtangmath lesson today on division! Our students were so engaged and their understanding of division has been deepened! @KenwoodElementa
The third grade math teachers became “walking anchor charts” to help with the tricky concept of area and perimeter that we started today! @KenwoodElementa@lexiadams3rd@DunnBobbi
Yesterday we began partnering with the other 3rd grade classes to start our “Design a Playground” PBL project! Our students showed so much ownership of their unique playgrounds & loved having so much voice & choice! @KenwoodElementa#Zone1derful#JCPSkyMath
Fridays are days we can work on extending our knowledge through projects and experiments. We spent the morning Designing a Playground by using status and multiplication. I love seeing the collaboration of our mathematicians!
We love using our interactive smart panels to allow our students to write on and solve problems we feature in math! This helps facilitate student led discussions and it helps us catch misconceptions in real time! @KenwoodElementa#JCPSDigIn#JCPSDigitalTransformation
We concluded our culture quilt projects with presentations! Each student got to share 4 elements of their culture and what makes them unique. These projects are then uploaded into their @JCPSBackpack We loved getting to sit back and learn from our students ❤️ @KenwoodElementa
