Congratulations to our incredible team on an outstanding year and an amazing performance at the 2026 4th Grade National Championships! 🏆 Out of 58 champion teams nationwide, SPARK brought home the NATIONAL TITLE! Way to go Reese for placing 10th individually among 140 schools. So proud of the hard work, talent, and teamwork! 💚✨ Special shoutout to Brennan Fritts, Valedictorian of Midtown High School Class of 2026 and former SPARK student, who joined us to celebrate! A former Math Team winner at SPARK—full circle moment! 🎉@drjtoney @sarapruett5 @apsupdate @APS_SPARK @GaDOEMath @apssteam @APSMidtown

There’s nothing like sitting in the seat of a student !📚 🙌🏾 Today we had a great deep dive into the K–12 math learning progression during the @GaDOEMath session led by Mr. Golden. The conversation was rich and the takeaways were valuable! ✨💫

Students in Ms. Gregory’s 4th grade class actively involved using @Desmos to understand lines, line segments, rays and angles with the @GaDOEMath @TimberRidgeHCS

March PD Day ✅ Today we engaged in powerful conversations as we analyzed Algebra C&C Milestones domain data and explored instructional strategies to #TargetTheGaps. Together, we are doing the work for winning!🏆 #Math #GaDOEMath #PiDayEve

Great resource for teaching Fractions as whole numbers from ⁦@GaDOEMath⁩! Find it on Inspire! #mathismyjam #fractions

This week our teachers engaged in hands-on math manipulatives training aligned to upcoming learning plans. When we increase student discourse and conceptual understanding, achievement follows. @aliciaparker01 @MMS_HCS @GaDOEMath @DrKim_Kessinger @Math_HCS

One-on-one support is my fave! Today we unpacked the @GaDOEMath Algebra Language Companion and identified appropriate scaffolds to support the learning plans. I created a compressed tool to help easily identify the scaffold according to language proficiency.

Our mini golf courses are coming along thanks to the creativity and teamwork of our 4th graders lead by Mrs. Sulchek, and the support of our amazing community partners ⛳️✨ Designing, testing, and problem solving the SPARK way! 🐉💚 @apssteam @APS_SPARK @drjtoney @sarapruett5 @KSulchek @STEAMGeorgia @GaDOEScience @GaDOEMath

Look at our data scientist first graders 🐝📊 creating bar graphs about pollinators in the media center! They’re collecting data, organizing it, and explaining their thinking—using math to protect our planet. Big SPARK Dragon brains at work! 🐉💚 @cadycrew @drjtoney @sarapruett5 @APS_SPARK @apssteam @STEAMGeorgia @GaDOEMath @GaDOEScience

Measurement in action on the rooftop ☀️📏 Second graders started with art, building symmetrical structures, then tested shadow structures at different times of the day to observe, measure, and compare how shadows change—science and math growing from creativity 🎨🔺 @APS_SPARK @GaDOEMath @GaDOEarts @GaDOEScience @STEAMGeorgia @apssteam @drjtoney @sarapruett5

Third grade teachers, here’s a great resource for teaching about elapsed time! gpb.org/education/learn/lets… @GPBEducation @GaDOEMath #thirdgradeteacher #time @PickettsMillES

Their turn to be the teachers today! Students completed a jigsaw activity with word problems. We used a Learning Plan from @GaDOEMath that integrated our current science unit. @CobbMathDept @PickettsMillES #contentintegration #studentcentered @cobbscience

Great things happening during district PD day. Ts are analyzing student work from the Diagnostic Assessments in our @GaDOEMath learning plans. @Math_HCS @HenryCountyBOE

📣T&L Spotlight: Mathematics English Language Development Resource 🔗url.gadoe.org/8o7s0 This resource provides information to support teachers and teacher leaders with using English language proficiency data & specific scaffolds. #GaDOE #gateachers #GaDOEInspire #GaDOEMath

A year ago today I was sweating bullets 😅 under the brightest lights & a row of 🎥— but what an incredible experience! Honored to be part of this @GPBEducation × @GaDOEMath project. The videos, which highlight effective mathematics teaching practices in action, are now LIVE!

4th graders hit the ground running with an Exploring Fractions task from @GaDOEMath such great conversations to start our day @RCE_HCS #UnlockingPotential #WeAreRacers

Rocking and rolling this Monday morning after Thanksgiving! #RisinginExcellence @GaDOEMath

💛 Honored and grateful to be a part of the incredible Math Team at Sutton Middle School. 💛 Every day, I get to empower students to grow, strive, and believe in their own mathematical brilliance. 💛Thank you to supportive leadership, and phenomenal colleagues who make this work meaningful. @MerriweatherEDU @fhenderson1908 @FPB_SuttonPA @SuttonCougars @GaDOEMath @georgiadeptofed @apsupdate

Want to make a Math Coordinator excited on a Monday? Include the @GaDOEMath learning plans into your lesson. Shout out to @LakesideVikings for an awesome CCV today. Math instruction was aligned to standards and the student actively engaged with learning plans!

What? Having fun, doing exercises all while doing math? Yes! The @GaDOEMath instructional learning has these 3rd grade students in Mrs. Blanton’s class estimating, comparing, rounding while giggling! 🤭 💛💙 @Timberridge_HCS
