Day 1 of our Civil Rights Activist research project! The buzz in the classroom was pure excitement as they chose who they wanted to research and started learning about their life! I can’t wait to see their final outcomes. #todayinComal@FariasSpitzer
Trying to soak up every last bit of winter break! Today we fished the Guadalupe River! A beautiful 70 degree, sunny New Years in Texas! 🎣☀️🧡 #teachersonbreak#girlswhofish
Today we learned what text features are in nonfiction. Then we worked backwards to build a nonfiction text to make it a passage. They did so well at making connections, and I enjoyed seeing their ‘ah-ha’ moments! #todayinComal@FariasSpitzer
Today we started our journey into story elements using plot mountain. We took notes, and then we practiced our skills using Pixar short films. Then students independently worked in Google classroom to draw and drop the correct elements! #todayinComal@FariasSpitzer

We had the best time at our K5 Launch training this week! We were able to learn so many exciting technology aspects to bring into our classrooms. My favorite part was the vex robots! ##Comalisd@FariasSpitzer
Today we celebrated in Room 314! Both classes grew on their MAP data from the beginning of the year. I’m so proud of how hard they work, so a reward was necessary! We graphed our data with our new scores and then ate donuts! 🍩 #todayinComal#FariasSpitzer#Iteachsecond
Might be my biggest catch yet! Caught this beauty on a gorgeous 80 degree Texas December day on Lake Dunlap 💛 Life doesn’t get much better than this! #teachersonbreak#LakeDunlap#NewBraunfels#Texas
Today we learned about the history of gingerbread cookies! Then we tasted a gingerbread cookie and casted our vote if we liked it or not. We then finished up with using our phonics skill of the week to create a ‘plate of cookies’ with words of the week! #todayinComal
Kicked off a full day of planning and purpose with vertical alignment across our campus! So many rich conversations to better grow and serve ALL our Bulldogs. ❤️🖤 #theFSESway#todayincomal#togetherwecultivate
Today we had our own Election Day in 2nd grade so we could vote for our Student Government Association members! We had a polling booth, voter registration cards,and then got a ‘I voted’ sticker when complete! #todayinComal#FariasSpitzer
From our first round of testing to our second round this week, both classes improved by 20%! So we celebrated with extra recess! I’m so proud of their growth this first 9 weeks! 🥳 #todayinComal#FariasSpitzer#Iteachsecond
