Teaching Ss 21st century skills-collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking-Summit Hill ES Teacher of the Year 2020-Seesaw Ambassador
ASL is about collaboration! Inspired by the book The Watcher these #DesignThinking superstars created a unique pair of sunglasses for Jane Goodall to locate chimps featuring GPS, echolocation, heat sensors, and camouflage. Ss thought of so many other uses for these sunnies too!
Book Review Week in ASL gives Ss the chance to get some great new book ideas for summer reading and lights the literary spark. 5⭐️s #Reading@lorriebearden@mantaslico
There is no doubt that many of us could use this product presented by Ss during ASL Shark Tank week. No more glitches-what a dream! #sharktank @lorriebearden
Shark tank week is always one of our favorites in ASL. This week was all about Economics, investments, Design Thinking, and price incentives. These students thought of everything! #Economics @lorriebearden

There is NOTHING better than #inspired Ss! In ASL this week we are learning about folklore, and the background of clovers, and of course leprechauns and after creating leprechaun traps in class my 5th graders said, “Hey Mrs. Leeson look what we made on the playground. So cool!!

I love when Ss become the teachers in ASL. The 4th grade Ss used models to present and teach other Ss about #newtonslawsofmotion That’s the way we roll in ASL! @lorriebearden
The concepts of chemical and physical change can be confusing, but these ASL 5th graders understood the differences after competing to physically change a piece of paper in the most ways possible. #chemicalandphysicalchange@lorriebearden
The Summit Hill ES Kindness Club started the New Year by providing warmth and fun to rescued animals. Ss sorted blankets and toys to deliver to @atlantahumane they also created posters to encourage animal adoption. So many ways to show #Kindness@summithillpto@lorriebearden
Take shelter! ASL Ss discovered the difference between weather watches and warnings and used #designthinking to create safe shelters for an innovative weather ready home. @lorriebearden
What a great way to start the new year in ASL learning about GAs wacky weather!! Ss were obsessed with meteorology, creating and hypothesizing about tornadoes in a bottle and charting our favorite types of weather. #weatherreport@lorriebearden
The debates continue in ASL with relevant topics such as 1st and 2nd-What is the BEST Season?Third and 4th-Should kids play unlimited video games? Also. this debate in 5th-Should teens have credit cards? Some Ss found that the facts can change minds. #debate@lorriebearden
It’s debate season in ASL and K Ss presented their argument for the best pet with lots of reasons including these important factors to consider 😀. #debate@lorriebearden@mantaslico
