One of my favorite yearly traditions is having students write persuasive letters to their favorite businesses! It’s especially fun when we hear back and makes our writing so meaningful! Thank you to @HopCatKalamazoo for being so supportive! #GoGullLake #GLCSRyan

We are working on creating multiple strategies to represent division facts. From remembering math fact families to creating arrays and number lines, this group is doing a great job! #GLCSRyan #GoGullLake
I love coming in each day and looking for “Fred,” our morning meeting stuffy! This group is so creative. #GLCSRyan #GoGullLake
A group of students spend every Friday afternoon “playing school” and reviewing concepts we have learned thought the week. It’s so fun to watch and melts my heart every time! #GLCSRyan #gogulllake
We launched our writing workshop with @CCurtisGL and my class is constantly begging to pull out their writing notebooks! We are writing about everything from our rooms to stories and graphic novels! #writewithpurpose #gogulllake #GLCSRyan
This week we made bracelets with words to embody how we can help our class feel like a family! We read “Our Class is a Family,” shared our values, and created a mission statement. #GLCSRyan #gogulllake
It’s my favorite time of the year where students write letters to their favorite businesses! Here are some samples of their writing. From @Target to @GreatWolfLodge and @cedarpoint, my students are hoping to hear back! #writewithpurpose #GLCSRyan #GoGullLake
One of my favorite vocabulary review games is “30 second sketch” where the students have 30 seconds to draw a picture of our vocabulary words! They love sharing out their drawings and explaining their thinking. #GLCSRyan #GoGullLake
